Using sequential tree analysis to search for ‘bundles’ of HR practices

Abstract: This article reviews progress in the search for a ‘bundle’ of HR practices, using the work of MacDuffie as a starting point for the analysis of the concept of a bundle. The different methods by which bundles might be identified are reviewed and sequential tree analysis is presented as a possible alternative approach. It is then tested alongside factor analysis and regression on accounts of HR practices and aspects of performance provided by a sample of 1,308 managers. The results show that sequential tree anal… Show more

“…Delaney and Huselid (1996) and Lai and Cheng (2005) considered perceived market performance and productivity performance as an important index of organisational performance. Furthermore, Guest et al (2004) perceived organisational performance outcomes as management rating of employees' s performance, employees' innovation, and employment relations. Empirical researchers have investigated the effects of human resource practices using financial performance, efficiency and employees' turnover, productivity, and employees' relations ( [Ahmad and Schroeder, 2003], [Delery and Doty, 1996] and [Huselid, 1995]).…”

“…This is also consistent with internal fit that "their collective effect will be greater than the sum of their individual parts" (Wall, Wood 2005: 431). As discussed by Guest et al (2004), internally consistent human resource practices or HPWPs reflect the organizational logic. Therefore, it is important to have an understanding of the effects of training, empowerment, and rewards as the indicators of management commitment to service quality or internally consistent HPWPs on employees' job embeddedness in frontline service jobs.…”
