Amsterdam, NL, October 27, 2021 – What role can institutions of higher education play in preparing students to flourish in today’s labor market? Are students learning the skills and competencies employers are looking to hire? A special issue of Human Systems Management presents new research that examines a wide range of issues on the intersection of higher education and the labor market, such as knowledge-driven competitiveness and entrepreneurial thinking, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on learning and research, globalization, online learning, and human rights for education and work.

“The development of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) has been an important instrument in the EU integration process, and employability has been one of its main goals from the very beginning,” explain Guest Editors Aleš Trunk, PhD, International School for Social and Business Studies, Slovenia, and David Dawson, PhD, University of Gloucestershire, UK.

ABOUT HUMAN SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT

Human Systems Management (HSM) is an interdisciplinary, international, refereed journal, offering applicable scientific insight into reinventing business, civil-society, and government organizations, through the sustainable development of high technology processes and structures. Adhering to the highest civic, ethical and moral ideals, the journal promotes the emerging anthropocentric-sociocentric paradigm of societal human systems, rather than the pervasively mechanistic and organismic or medieval corporatism views of humankind’s recent past. HSM seeks to help transform human organizations into true societal systems, free of bureaucratic ills, along two essential, inseparable yet complementary aspects of modern management. www.iospress.com/human-systems-management
