Abstract

This is the final chapter in the book. As the last chapter, its primary focus is concentrated on certain selected concluding remarks regarding the human factor and its role in effective and efficient human resources management and public administration. In this chapter, it is also pointed out that to ignore the human factor quality in any endeavor is in the business organization is to perennially jeopardize its long term survival. Indeed, any people who are either ignorant of or relegate to the back burner the ongoing education of the various levels of personnel in the business organization is to be doomed long before it happens. To avoid this plight, it is imperative to remain keenly aware of the significance of the positive human factor qualities to the long-term health of the business organization.
