Which set of activities defines human resource management?

1. Human resource management is the process of hiring, developing, motivating, and evaluating employees so that organizational goals are achieved. 2. Every one of those four verbs describes work done on people rather than on materials, money, or markets. 3. Buying and shipping materials is purchasing work, recording and auditing is accounting work, and pricing and promoting is marketing work, so none of them names the HR function. _Source: OpenStax Introduction to Business (CC BY 4.0), Ch 8 "Managing Human Resources and Labor Relations", section 8.1 Achieving High Performance through Human Resources Management_
