The Harvard framework
The Harvard framework
Beer and his colleagues believed that
‘today, many pressures are demanding
a broader, more comprehensive and
more strategic perspective with regard
to the organization’s human resources’.
These pressures have created a need
for: ‘A longer-term perspective in
managing people and consideration of
people as potential assets rather than
merely a variable cost’.
• The Harvard school suggested that
HRM had two characteristic features:
– line managers accept more
responsibility for ensuring the
alignment of competitive strategy
and personnel policies
– personnel has the mission of setting
policies that govern how personnel
activities are developed and
implemented in ways that make them
more mutually reinforcing.
