Abstract:
Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) has evolved from an administrative function to a crucial component of organizational strategy. This paper explores the historical development of SHRM, current trends, and future directions. Key trends include technological advancements, globalization, diversity and inclusion, employee experience, and data-driven decision-making. A mixed-methods approach combining qualitative case studies and quantitative surveys is proposed to analyze these trends. Findings suggest that while SHRM has advanced significantly, future developments will focus on artificial intelligence, personalized HR practices, and sustainability. This study provides insights into how SHRM can adapt to the evolving business landscape.
