    This paper’s objective is to scientifically identify the present research trends for future research agenda in Human Resource Analytics (HRA) domain by conducting a comprehensive literature study. Our proposed article applied the existing SPAR-4-SLR protocol for the systematic assessment of the HRA literature. Based on search parameters including subject, function, and language, the authors discovered 226 publications from the Scopus database. We performed a systematic literature review by considering the top 60 highly cited publications and identified five key themes such as HR analytics, Training and Development, Performance Management, Big Data, AI and ML, and Human Resource Information System and Organisation Development. This study extends the HRA research by incorporating systematic assessment to build a systematic grasp of the field of study and highlights the emerging relevance of HRA for effective, objective, and transparent Human Resource Development (HRD).

    The Adoption and Effect of Artificial Intelligence on Human Resources Management, Part A, 2023, DOI Link

    View abstract ⏷

    Introduction: The application of artificial intelligence (AI) can substantially enhance both short- and long-term decision-making in human resource management (HRM) practices. However, academic research fails to address the dark side of AI in confluence with HRM and primarily paints a bright picture of the advantages of AI. Purpose: The current research emphasises the challenges faced in the HRM domain in applying AI in HRM practices and further discusses the future path to maximise the effect of AI on HRM. Methodology: The study rigorously surveyed secondary sources like the journal papers, consultant reports and other databases to critically examine the challenges encountered in applying AI in HRM practices. Findings: Analysis of the above-mentioned sources shows that AI algorithm might bring routinisation of work. HRM ethics, data safety and integrity, biased algorithm from the programmer, fewer data to train the AI model, lack of technical skills of HR executive, neglecting values, and ignoring the creative thinking by employees are a few aspects that might cause difficulty in the adaptation of AI in the HRM domain. As a consequence, there could be unnecessary extra monitoring of employee behaviour, which in turn could lead to loss of workplace well-being and trimming of the human element in HRM. Practical Implications: This study adds value by focusing on the challenges and suggests the path for robust HRM practices; because, the biased decision-making by AI could potentially lead to improper decision-making by the top management, and in turn, the sustainability of a firm could be at stake.

    View abstract ⏷

    The evolution of information technology is seen as a response to the growing needs for business organizations to keep abreast with industry trends, as well as necessary needs and preferences of employees, other stakeholders. From current literature most of the studies document several factors that continue to experience positive effects relative to the banking industry’s increasing adoption of IT. Some of these factors (which play a moderating role in assuring improved performance, productivity or efficiency among employees) include work infrastructure, ease of use, enhanced coordination, skill compatibility, confidence, effective time management, the creation of trust, and higher employee returns (through improved service quality). The present paper suggest that IT implementation through training has led to skill improvements among employees and also yielded a positive, supportive work environment that has, in turn, motivated workforces towards supporting the vision and mission or banking institutions with which they work.

    Leaders typically display the behavior needed to consistently influence and motivate subordinates, and are equipped with ethical and moral values and a zeal to serve. There is a need for more servant and ethical leadership. Ethical leadership is transformational leadership coupled with a moral foundation, while servant leadership refers to an attitude of serving followers through the principle of stewardship. This paper critically reviews servant leadership and ethical leadership models and offers a blended model of serving that fits into the organizational context. Their model stresses that leaders must be trained in morals to promote the common good.
