Two Thumbs Up: Teaching Human Resource Management Topics Using Recently Released Film Clips

Abstract

Using film clips in the human resource (HR) and management classroom can be highly effective. Film clips can illustrate a variety of management topics, have a high impact, are easy to use, and generally cost little. This paper provides HR educators with ideas for using clips from five movies, released in 2015 or later, to teach their graduate or undergraduate students. Ideas for facilitation and prompts for discussion are included.
