HR Practices, Learning Culture and Human Capital: A Study on Indian Business and Professional Service Sector

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of human resource (HR) practices and learning-oriented culture to influence organizational human capital through knowledge management (KM) processes. Several linkages were proposed among study constructs based on previous literature annotations. Further, proposed relationships were empirically tested using structural equation modelling technique with the help of SPSS 20, PROCESS macro and AMOS 20 software. Data were collected from 237 employees of Indian business and professional service providers. This study discusses the role of HR practices and learning-oriented culture to affect KM process and shows that the proposed relationship has the potential to positively influence organizational human capital. In addition, results of the study provide empirical evidence to the mediating role of KM process between the associations of HR practices, organizational human capital, learning oriented culture and organizational human capital. Later, authors discuss study findings and provide insights into implications, limitations and future scope of the study.
