Reframing HRM in SMEs
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-34278-3 (ISBN)
SMEs face unique challenges directly stemming from their size, which create
pressures, tensions and dilemmas with regard to people management. These
include the liabilities of smallness and newness, as well as resource challenges
pertaining to the attraction, development and retention of the workforce. In turn,
these challenges can give rise to unique HR dynamics in the SME setting. This
edited collection brings together insights from thought leaders in the field of
HRM in SMEs to consider how the interplay of a range of external and internal
factors coalesce to shape the nature, form and meaning of HRM in this setting.
This volume moves beyond traditional accounts which are organised by HR
function or practice area (e.g. recruitment, performance, training) or by
considerations of the applicability of HR (e.g. HR and performance, best practice).
Instead, the contributions are divided in two sections, HR Challenges and HR
Dynamics, demonstrating how the unique setting of the SME must inform any
successful HRM intervention. This volume will be of great interest to students and academics ofHR, employment relations and entrepreneurship, as well as those exploring
professional qualifications.
