Teachers Manual – 4th Edition
Chapter 1
Human Relations:
The Key to Personal and Career Success

FOCUS

The overall goal of the fourth edition of Human Relations is to provide relevant
content and activities that will enable students to embrace 21st century skills,
integrate new ideas/change, offer new solutions, and apply a global perspective to
issues so that they may in turn produce new knowledge, services, processes, and
products. The Partnership for 20th Century Skills called for skill in interacting
competently and respectfully. The purpose of this chapter is to introduce students
to the study of human relations and help them appreciate the role human relations
skills play in their personal and career success. The development of human
relations in business occurred for reasons that are equally valid in 21st century
organizations. Therefore, the history of management practices is traced to give
the student an understanding of how human relations became important to
business.

21st century competencies and individual responsibilities in a 21st century
organization are discussed. An explanation of the changes that occur in businesses
is presented to assist students in understanding what they must be prepared to
contribute to the organization and why their contribution is essential. Perhaps the
most important aspect of this chapter is that students see connections among
numerous forces, their responsibilities and how they fit in the overall organization.
