Resource orchestration in practice: CEO emphasis on SHRM , commitment‐based HR systems, and firm performance
研究CEO对战略人力资源管理的重视如何通过基于承诺的人力资源系统影响企业绩效,基于190家韩国企业的多行业样本,强调中层管理者在落实高层战略中的作用。
In order to be effective, managers at all levels of the firm must engage in resource management activities, and these efforts are synchronized and orchestrated by top management. Using a specific type of strategic resource, commitment‐based human resource systems, we examine the effect of CEO resource orchestration in a multi‐industry sample of 190 K orean firms. Our results demonstrate that CEO emphasis on strategic HRM is a significant antecedent to commitment‐based HR systems. Furthermore, our results also suggest that CEO emphasis on strategic HRM has its primary effects on firm performance through commitment‐based HR systems. This finding underscores the importance of middle managers in operationalizing top management's strategic emphasis, lending empirical support to a fundamental tenet of resource orchestration arguments .
