I am happy to inform the academic community that I have signed a book contract with Routledge (an imprint of Taylor and Francis Group) on “*e-HRM: Leveraging Digital Technology to Transform HRM*”. The proposed textbook is targeted at 2nd/3rd year undergraduate and graduate students in Business and Management discipline, especially those who wish to major in Human Resource Management. As with other parts of business, technology is having a profound effect on the world of work and management of human resources. Technology is a key enabler for faster, cheaper and better delivery of HR services and in some cases can have a transformational effect. Accordingly, universities around the world tend to offer a course on e-HRM as part of Major in HRM, both at undergraduate and graduate level. A key differentiating feature of the book is that it marries the best of pure e-HRM approach with an applied focus and pure Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS) approach with a systems focus. The chapters will be written by academic scholars and industry practitioners drawn from around the world. All the chapters will have a uniform structure and pay equal attention to theory and practice.
