The former economic director of the IAAEU has published a new textbook together with three colleagues, who all worked at the institute in the past and have been habilitated in Trier. In "PERSONALÖKONOMIE UND PERSONALPOLITIK - Grundlagen einer evidenzbasierten Praxis" Dieter Sadowski (IAAEU), Bernd Frick and Martin Schneider (both from the University of Paderborn) and Susanne Warning (University of Augsburg) explain and evaluate human resource management patterns from the perspective of employers and employees. The textbook provides an understanding of institutional economic theory formation and empirical research (personnel analysis) - and thus the foundations of evidence-based personnel practice. The three keywords "personnel economics", "personnel policy" and "evidence" illustrate the book's claim.
The textbook is aimed at students in both bachelor's and master's degree programs. Didactically, it is characterized by the fact that in addition to theoretical considerations, numerous empirical studies are presented in their methodology and results. At the end of each chapter there are questions on the application of what has been learned.
