Abstract
Although a growing number of organizations now focus on the developmental aspect of their performance management practices to improve their effectiveness, little research has been conducted so far on these practices and their outcomes. To deepen our understanding of this phenomenon, we undertook a scoping review on development-oriented performance management practices (DOPMPs) within the employee development and performance management literatures. After mapping the literature on these topics, synthesizing their outcomes, and factors for implementation, we identified research gaps and proposed research avenues. Our review suggests that most of the literature on DOPMPs comes from the grey literature, that most practices are used for performance execution, but more attention needs to be given to strategic planning. By structuring the current knowledge on this topic, this review encourages researchers to produce new knowledge about DOPMPs, their synergies, and their outcomes through a systems approach.
期刊介绍:
As described elsewhere, Human Resource Development Review is a theory development journal for scholars of human resource development and related disciplines. Human Resource Development Review publishes articles that make theoretical contributions on theory development, foundations of HRD, theory building methods, and integrative reviews of the relevant literature. Papers whose central focus is empirical findings, including empirical method and design are not considered for publication in Human Resource Development Review. This journal encourages submissions that provide new theoretical insights to advance our understanding of human resource development and related disciplines. Such papers may include syntheses of existing bodies of theory, new substantive theories, exploratory conceptual models, taxonomies and typology developed as foundations for theory, treatises in formal theory construction, papers on the history of theory, critique of theory that includes alternative research propositions, metatheory, and integrative literature reviews with strong theoretical implications. Papers addressing foundations of HRD might address philosophies of HRD, historical foundations, definitions of the field, conceptual organization of the field, and ethical foundations. Human Resource Development Review takes a multi-paradigm view of theory building so submissions from different paradigms are encouraged.
