Academics and HR professionals have embraced Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) because it connects people strategy directly to business success. SHRM positions HR as a key driver of performance by aligning HR practices with organizational goals. While some critics argue that its rise is partly due to self-interest—boosting HR’s status and giving academics more research ground—the business case is strong. Organizations that adopt SHRM tend to see better outcomes in productivity, engagement, and adaptability. So, even if there’s some self-interest involved, the strategic value it brings is real and impactful.
