ABSTRACT

All organizations must invest in and expand resources to remain efficient. Production and generation of outputs require resources. These resources must be replenished once they have been expended to produce outputs, regardless of how outputs are defined. Human resources are no exception. Staff are one of the most valuable resources of any organization (Wooten and Crane 2003). Staff hold the keys to implementation and the focus for administrators must be on getting the right people in the right positions, motivating them to perform, maintaining and upgrading skills, and providing leadership (Fogg 1999). As depicted in Table 5.1, human resources has a role at all levels of planning and initiating change.
