Determinants of Strategic HR Capabilities in MNC Subsidiaries
基于123家北欧跨国公司子公司的数据，研究发现子公司人力资源经理的经验及其与公司总部人力资源部门之间的社会资本是影响战略人力资源能力的关键微观基础。
abstract Given the established association between organizational capabilities and organizational performance, shedding light on the determinants of capabilities remains a priority. We seek to narrow this research gap by providing empirical evidence concerning the influence of individual‐level determinants of strategic HR capabilities in subsidiaries of multinational corporations (MNCs). More specifically, we focus on two different conditions of individual action that function as microfoundations for organizational level strategic HR capabilities: the experience of subsidiary HR managers; and the social capital between managers working with HR issues in the subsidiary and those in the corporate HR function. Analysis of quantitative data gathered from 123 subsidiaries of 12 Nordic MNCs finds significant relationships between several microfoundations and the development of strategic HR capabilities in MNC subsidiaries.
