Abstract
Research spanning nearly 20 years has provided considerable empirical evidence for relationships between High Performance Work Practices (HPWPs) and various measures of performance including increased productivity, improved customer service, and reduced turnover. What stands out from this literature is the relative lack of focus on how HRM systems and practices influence or foster more innovative-related attitudes and behaviours. To date, we do not understand the extent that different HPWPs are related to innovation, how employee perceptions of HPWPs influence innovation, and what variables mediate or moderate the influence of HPWPs on innovation- and performance- related outcomes. While there are many calls for this type of research to be made a high priority, existing research has made few inroads into answering these questions. This symposium brings together researchers from Australia, Europe and Asia, and Africa to examine these various questions relating to the HPWP-innovation-performance relationship. Each paper discusses a practice that has been identified in HPWP literature and potential variables that can facilitate or hinder the effects of these practices of innovation- and performance-related outcomes.
