Strategic Human Resource Management and Organizational Effectiveness: Essays Celebrating and Advancing the Scholarship of David P. Lepak (1971–2017)
About this ebook
In addition to being a tribute to Professor Lepak and his work, this volume aims to help organizations and managers understand how to use human resource management to benefit employees while achieving organizational effectiveness. The chapters in this volume focus on strategic management of human capital resources, strategic HRM and multilevel HRM —areas of research that were central to Professor Lepak’s academic contributions. These chapters together provide important theoretical and practical implications for understanding how organizations can use HRM to generate and utilize their strategic human capital resources and how HRM interacts with internal and external factors to influence important employee and organizational outcomes.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of The International Journal of Human Resource Management.
