All executives want to see their organizations perform better, and search for tools that can help make this happen. For decades, human resource managers have considered that their function enhances performance. This contention has been met with incredulity on the part of executives, nevertheless, who wonder whether resources allocated to the human resource function are good investments. Dozens of studies have analyzed this problem, but their inconsistent results have supplied no judgments.
We take stock of the available evidence. Based on data from over 19,000 organizations, we reason that human resource management adds significant value for organizations. Moreover, the value added is most powerful when human resource systems are stressed rather than individual practices, when human resource management decisions are tied to strategy, and among manufacturing firms.
