Exploring the Fit Perspective: An Ethnographic Approach
采用民族志案例研究方法,全面评估人力资源管理中的“匹配”问题,发现实践错位会向员工传递矛盾信号,降低动机与承诺,并指出孤立采用最佳实践而不考虑匹配可能带来负面后果。
Abstract While strategic human resource management (SHRM) theory has largely supported the importance of “fit,” the empirical research evidence has been mixed. In this study, we employ an ethnographic, case‐study approach to provide a more comprehensive assessment of fit and consider key contextual factors influencing HRM in the organization. Our findings suggest that the misalignment of HR practices can produce conflicting signals for employees, leading to reduced motivation and commitment. Furthermore, our study suggests that attempts to adopt isolated best practices without sufficient consideration of fit can have negative consequences. We conclude with a discussion of theoretical and practical implications.
