Presence or absence of strategic human resource management practices has been measured from perspective of HR managers. The current study also captures perceptive of line managers vis a vis strategic human resource management practices. Even as Indian companies are becoming more attuned to strategic human resource management practices, an empirical investigation to explore linkages to organizational performance was deemed be relevant to emerging research literature.This book is based on a study whose objective was to empirically validate the relationship between Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) and Organizational Performance (OP).
