Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I explored the impact of human resource management (HRM) practices or simply management practices on performance by taking into consideration national culture among other different national environmental factors, based on evidence from Indian, Malaysia, Japan, and the United States. I confirmed the effect of relevant management practices on manufacturing performance regardless of different national environments. I also captured the moderating effect of national culture among other contextual factors on the relationships between management practices and performance, proving the efficacy of the cross-cultural perspective in conducting SHRM research across countries. This research makes a theoretical contribution in particular in that it revealed that not only can differences in national culture explain divergence in management practices, they can also determine the relations between management practices and performance.
