, Theme 1: Black-Box debate
Knowledge clip 1 (transcript)
The central idea for strategic human resource management is the idea that the adoption
by organization of a more sophisticated set of HR practices covering key aspects of the
management of people in the workplace, has a positive impact on the organizational
performance. The policies and practices involved cover a wide range of HR-functions in the
area such as recruitment & selection, training & development, performance management,
pay & benefits, participation and communication. According to strategic human resource
management theory, the more these HR practices are implemented in an organization, the
better the organizations performance. However, our understanding of these processes by
which HR-practices affect organizational performance has been quite limited. Indeed, it is
unclear both how many steps there are between HR and performance and what the content
of each step is. This has been referred to as the black box debate in strategic human
resource management. In response there have been a number of efforts to model the
impact of HRM on organizational performance. Central to these models is the idea that
employees plays a key role in explaining the impact of HR-practices on organizational
performance. There are three theories that dominate the field of SHRM.
1. Resource based view of the firm (Barney) → the main assumption of this theory is
that organizations can build a competitive advantage based on resources that are:
a. Valuable (capable of delivering superior competitive results)
b. Rare (not easily obtained by competitors)
c. Imperfectly imitable (hard to replace/copy)
All organizations have different types of resources including:
a. Organizational resources (structure, planning)
b. Physical resources (plans, equipment) and
c. Human resources
Building upon this research based view (RBV) paradigm book salt proposes that a human
resource advantage consist of the following:
• A human capital advantage → a situation where there is a stock of exceptional
human talented workers within the organization, whose knowledge abilities and
skills match the strategic needs of the firm.
• Human processes advantage → the presence of difficult to imitate historical
evolved processes within the organization, such as an intensive form of cooperation
between people.
As such, the resource based view logic provides a rational for how HR-practices positively
effect organizational performance by building a better human resource capital pool and by
stimulating better processes within the organization.
