It is important for HRM

Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM)–the largest professional
association dedicated to HR professionals.
Select three articles published
within the past three years—specifically addressing the following:
Article 1: What HRM is and why it is important. What main points does the author (or authors)
make in Article 1? Do you agree? Why or
why not?
Article 2: HRM’s role in organizations. What main points does the author (or authors)
make in Article 2? Do you agree? Why or
why not?
Article 3: Importance of strategic HRM. What main points does the author (or authors)
make in Article 3? Do you agree? Why or why not?
In your 3- to 4-page submission
(not counting the cover page or the References page), be sure to provide the
citation to each magazine article. Also include the three sources in the
References section.
