Abstract

The field of strategic human resource management (SHRM) has experienced substantial expansion and development through a plethora of scholarly publications in recent decades. The present study employs a bibliometric analysis to investigate the progression of research in the field of SHRM by analysing a corpus consisting of more than 1,200 articles published between the years 1987-2022. The analysis discerns discrete periods of publication, disciplinary viewpoints, and principal research themes within the field. It is worth noting that there is a significant emphasis on industries based in the USA that rely heavily on labour. This specific focus provides potential for conducting studies that span multiple countries and industries. The resource-based view has gained prominence as a significant theoretical framework that offers a fundamental foundation. This bibliometric analysis provides valuable contributions to the literature on SHRM, offering guidance for future research and enhancing our understanding of the influence of strategic human resource practices in the contemporary contexts.
