Abstract: Unlike other resources, human resources are rare and hard to imitate, that makes them seen as a unique source of sustainable competitive advantages. Hence, it is essential for organizations to exert extra effort in order to manage such valuable assets. Through well-defined human resource management (HRM) practices, organizations can enhance their employees' satisfaction and commitment. As a result, it will stimulate them to perform extra efforts on behalf of their organizations and will increase their intention to stay. The study examines the role of HRM practices in increasing employees’ job satisfaction and strengthening their organizational commitment, as well as explores the role of organizational culture and leadership style as a moderator of these relationships. By using secondary data from the previous studies, the result shows that the HRM practices play a significant role in increasing employees’ satisfaction and commitment, and that role might be maximized if the HRM practices integrate properly with organizational culture and leadership styles.
