Strategy, core competence, and HR involvement as determinants of HR effectiveness and refinery performance
研究美国86家石化炼油厂发现，人力资源高管参与战略决策能提升人力资源效能，尤其在追求产品创新战略且视技能员工为核心能力时效果最强；但若以高效生产为核心能力，这种参与反而对绩效有负面影响。
This study examines the impact of strategy, core competence, and involvement of HR executives in strategic decision making on the refinery managers' evaluation of the effectiveness of HR and on refinery performance among 86 U.S. petrochemical refineries. Survey results indicated that higher involvement of HR in organizational strategy was strongly related to perceptions of HR effectiveness, and that the relationship was strongest to the extent that refineries pursued a product innovation strategy and viewed skilled employees as their core competence. HR involvement was unrelated to refinery performance but was actually negatively related when refineries emphasized efficient production as their core competence. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
