Abstract

High performance work systems have coalesced into an influential body of discourse within human resource management. With the advent of knowledge-based work they have become more fragmented, sector-wise differentiated and critical to performance management. Measuring the impact of this research discipline and understanding it’s patterns is the need of the hour. A large corpus of 730 papers is quantitatively analysed to uncover insights on common research themes, differential influence of these themes and other similarity patterns in respect of authors, institutions, sources and countries that are anchored in the discourse. Bibliographic coupling, collaboration networks, keyword co-occurrence networks and topic modelling are some of the techniques employed. The three prominent research themes are: ‘Reconciling paradigm controversies’, ‘Impact of HPWS on employees’, and ‘HPWS and new workplace dynamics’. Extensive future research directions are suggested.
