Why is staffing important? Who is responsible for it? Is it a function of personnel/human resource departments? What are some of the ways managers can adapt to changes in the external environment (shrinking work force, impacts of technology, etc.) to recruit and maintain quality personnel?
In your first discussion post, you are asked to respond to a prompt with following four parts of the question:
1. Why is staffing important?
2. Who is responsible for it?
3. Is it a function of personnel/human resource departments?
4. What are some of the ways managers can adapt to changes in the external environment (shrinking work force, impacts of technology, etc.) to recruit and maintain quality personnel?
I suggest you break your response into those four specific parts with at least a few sentences (if not a paragraph) for each part of the question.
To earn full points: Post at least 200 words and reply to at least two other students. Support your post with at least one citation of a model from Chapter 9 or another credible source (from your textbook; use APA format for your reference).
