Employee Characteristics, Contemporary Human Resource Management Practices and Organization Effectiveness
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to review existing literature on employee characteristics, contemporary human resource management practices and organization effectiveness. A framework was then developed that can be used by future leaders to make organizations more effective. This paper used a literature review of journals on employee characteristics, human resource management practices and organization effectiveness. The purpose of this review was to collect and summarize empirical evidence from literature that fits within the context of this study. Organization leaders face the unsurmountable task of achieving organization effectiveness using the limited resources at their disposal. From the literature review findings, organization effectiveness is achievable so long as the management recruits employees with the desirable characteristics, puts into place contemporary human resource management practices to manage the employees. This will help the organization to achieve its goals, acquire resources and satisfy stakeholders.
