Perspectives of Human Resources Management

Explain and discuss the operator, manager, executive, and political perspectives on human resources management.

The Operator is typically charged with performing tasks within a certain HR arena, such as recruitment. The Manager often has supervisory responsibilities, overseeing the works of others. At the Executive level, this individual often manages an entire HR division. The interactions of these three levels of positions may have a "political" perspective of how each individual views the other; as a worker and/or as a leader.
