Define and Describe: This frame focuses on the people within an organization. The organization is deemed successful if the people's needs are met. In the text it says " Psychologically healthy organizations provide adequate wages and benefits and make sure employees have the skills, support, and resources to do their jobs" (Bolman, pg. 16). This showcases the role of the human resource frame being applied in an efficient way to fully support the people within an organization.
Importance of Understanding: As the text has demonstrated with the appropriate use of the human resource frame organizations can be viewed as successful based on the level of care the people within the organization receive. From an organization leadership perspective, this frame plays an important role in the relationship between the leaders and the workers. Knowing how to properly take care of the employees is a way to gain employee loyalty, quality work, and a shared sense of company values.
