function of an organization. It helps to build a competitive
edge for an organization by positively engaging its
employees. Key ingredients of effective Human Resource
Management are having in place an appropriate leadership
style and effective two-way communications with
employees. This creates an open and honest environment
where employees feel that their ideas are being listened to
and that they can make a contribution to decision making.
Engaged employees are more likely to be proud to work for
their organization and therefore will believe in and live out
the values of the organization.
