ABSTRACT

The personnel or workforce of an organization are the key to efficient service delivery and without an adequate, skilled and well-motivated workforce operating within a sound personnel management system, the realization of organizational objectives is far-fetched, thus, as a student of public personnel management, an administrator or a manager that underrates the crucial role and underplays the importance of people in goal achievement (whether public or private sector) can neither be effective nor efficient. The recognition of the role and importance of public personnel management in the workplace has led to a demand for graduates who are trained and qualified in public personnel management who can advise organizations in this area, and the highest development of a career structure through which such an employees may rise to the highest levels of the organization.
