Question

Explain Evidence Based Management (EBM)


Answer

Decisions in HRM should be based on the scientific method.

Steps: - Post managerial question - Search for evidence - Apply evidence

EBM tries to offer science based solutions to practical problems. - As with other sciences, never guaranteed as humans (which are not always predictable) involved. - What works most of the time, for most situations ?

Most management decisions are still taken based on intuiton, but EBM is in most cases superior.
