Important concepts
Business Management and Human Resource Management covers how organisations set direction and work through people. Planning, organising, leading and control are related functions; strategy connects goals to choices about resources and the environment. Organisation structure clarifies authority and coordination, while organisational behaviour examines motivation, leadership, groups and culture. HRM links workforce planning and recruitment to development, performance, rewards and employee relations. In theory questions, compare what a framework explains and the assumptions it makes rather than treating every model as a universal prescription.
