Chapter Chapter 8 in Strategic Management of Professional Service Firms, 2011, pp 105-115 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The previous chapter focused on individual human resources management instruments in professional service firms. The next chapter now takes things one step further and discusses possible advantages of a systematic combination of individual HR measures in the sense of an integrative approach in comparison to a random application of individually designed personnel measures. This view is based on the finding that the coordination of individual HR measures in the sense of a consistent concentration increases the success of personnel management.1 The so-called high performance work system approach takes this insight into account by emphasizing the systematic concentration of personnel measures with the purpose to enhance entrepreneurial performance.
