Call for Proposals: The Changing Context of Managing People

Dear all

The editor of Emerald's new series, The Changing Context of Managing People, is currently inviting quality book proposals from scholars and practitioners in human resource management.

The past two decades have represented a time of unprecedented social, technological, and economic change that has required a transformation in human resource management (HRM). Against this backdrop, we see changing attitudes towards work and careers, leading to different expectations of the workplace. These and other contextual changes mean that existing ways of managing people may no longer be effective.

This book series will examine in depth the changing context to identify its impact on HRM and the workforce. Each book of the series will discuss different dimensions of the changing context and examine in detail their impact on the nature of people management. As a series for academics and senior practitioners, it will aim to take forward management practice as well as suggest future research agendas within HRM.

Prospective contributors are invited to submit a proposal for either an edited or authored book, publishing 2017 and beyond, following standard Emerald book proposal guidelines. Please forward your proposal to the Series Editor Emma Parry emma.parry@cranfield.ac.uk , cc'ing the Commissioning Editor Zoe Morris zmorris@emeraldinsight.com

With a portfolio of more than 2500 books, and over 150 new titles publishing each year, Emerald Books aim to provide high quality, cutting-edge research across a range of subjects. Emerald has published contributions from all of the world's top 100 business schools (based on the Financial Times Global MBA Rankings 2016) and from 199 of the top 200 universities worldwide (based on the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2015-2016).

Please do forward this email on to any friends or colleagues who may also be interested in submitting a proposal.

Kind regards,

Hannah Barraclough MLitt
