I think HRM does focus on viewing employees as assets, so maybe that's not the right answer?

I remember studying that HRM is more strategic than just personnel management, but I'm not sure which option doesn't fit.

I've got this! HRM is all about viewing employees as assets and focusing on facilitation rather than negotiation. I'm confident I can get this right.

Okay, let's see. I know HRM is more strategic and focused on the big picture, while Personnel is more about day-to-day operations. I'll use that to guide my answer.

This is a tricky one, but I think A is the odd one out. HRM is all about modern, transactional approaches, right? No old-school personnel stuff here.

I'm going to have to go with D. Viewing employees as assets is such a cold and impersonal way to approach HR. I hope that's not the right answer!
