HOW REWARD INFLUENCES EMPLOYEE EDUCATION : Final paper

Glavni izvor konkurentske prednosti u suvremenom poslovanju predstavlja ljudski kapital, odnosno pravilna selekcija, obuka i motivacija zaposlenika. Naime, osim što zaposlenici čine jedan od ključnih čimbenika uspješnosti organizacije, predstavljaju i najvažniji resurs svakog poduzeća. Stoga, glavni cilj ali i izazov menadžmenta u organizaciji jest osigurati motiviranost, produktivnost i efikasnost kadrova u poduzeću, što je ostvarivo upravo uspješnim upravljanjem ljudskim resursima. Upravljanje ljudskim resursima je multidisciplinarna poslovna funkcija koja je zastupljena u svakoj, profitnoj ili neprofitnoj, organizaciji. U suvremenom poslovanju organizacije postaju sve više svjesnije činjenice da obrazovanje i obuka te razvoj karijere zaposlenika predstavlja ključan faktor ostvarenja konkurentnosti čitave organizacije. U skladu s tim, poduzeća sve više ulažu u kadrove i efikasne sustave nagrađivanja kadrova te pokušavaju maksimalno iskoristiti njihove kompetencije jer to poboljšava produktivnost i kvalitetu učinaka, olakšava prilagodbu globalnoj konkurenciji i promjenama na tržištu te predstavlja izvor dodatnih brojnih prednosti.The main source of competitive advantage in modern business is human capital or the proper selection, training and motivation of employees.
