than source of creative energy

a central philosophy

within the organization

Emphasizes more on the soft side of HRM

Deeply rooted in the Human relation tradition

Proposing that behaviour is primarily self regulated


rather than controlled by outside pressures
Proposes that :
Situational factors- internal & external
constrain the formation of HR policies but to
varying degrees they may also be
influenced by HR policies.

all the criteria's but is reasonably
comprehensive.
Employees will exhibit loyalty & commitment
if they are trusted & allowed to work on their
own.

implemented in ways that make them
more mutually reinforcing
David Guest Model

on the assumption that HRM is distinctively different from


traditional personnel

direct relationship with valued business consequences.
