Abstract:-
Purpose: This paper seeks to:
- Review the literature on HR Strategies with special reference to the relationship of HR Strategies with other constructs.
- Establish a relation between Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) and HR Strategies.
- Determining the research gap in this area.
Design/methodology/approach: The paper intends to provide a conceptual review of the past literature in the areas of HR Strategies. The paper is divided into 3 parts:
- Describes and examine the published works in HR Strategies.
- Established a relation between SHRM and HR Strategies.
- Established a relation between the HR Strategies and the other variables like business outcomes, Business strategies, Core competencies, HR Outsourcings, Knowledge management etc.
- The review identifies the limitations of the literature and outlines future lines of research for this field.
Findings: The review also showed that HR Strategies are related to other variables like; business outcomes, business strategies, organizational strategies, core competencies, HR outsourcing and knowledge management etc.
Research limitations: The main limitation of this review is that the study is completely based on secondary source of review no primary study is done. Thus, the study does not provide any empirical evidence to support the literature of the article. All the provided literature is written based on the findings gained from the previous studies.
Practical implications: HR Strategies affect other constructs like; organizational effectiveness, Change management and organizational development etc. This study can increase the knowledge of formulation and implementation of HR Strategies in any organization which will in turn enhance the effectiveness of the managers. This in turn can help the organization to operate at high efficiency.
Intangible Originality/value: The study helps the scholars orient their research in HR Strategies by providing them a better understanding of the construct. Also provides a ray of direction in which the field is going and what are the existing gaps.
