Abstract

High growth small and medium-sized firms, usually known as « gazelles », are key actors of job creation and revitalization of territories. Most of the focus of academic research has been on the gazelles' characteristics and the factors of their growth, but little attention has been paid to the nature of human resources management (HRM) practices in such organizations. From a comparative case study, this paper analyzes the consequences of the growth dynamics on human resource management and the induced tensions. It underlines the importance of organizational, temporal, contextual and relational ambidexterity in dealing with these tensions.
