This is an introduction to human resource management (HRM) process in the non-profit sector, specifically the development sector in Kenya. The chapter identifies the importance that HRM plays in its contribution to organisational performance and, in so doing, sets the stage for an exploration of HRM policy and practice among select international non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in Kenya. These organisations are situated within a sectoral culture, one that is shaped by historical practices and partnerships among stakeholders, characterised by resource dependency and impacted by social institutions within the country.
