Abstract

Software development companies are noted for their innovative IT products. This is due to the focus on knowledge as a key driver for the innovations. Knowledge is a key element to all human resources. The purpose of this research is to investigate the factors influencing the effectiveness of HRM practices designed to improve knowledge transfer within software companies. A theoretical model was developed and empirically tested to test the hypothesis. Software companies were chosen in Sri Lanka with their professionals acting as respondents to survey. A sample includes 203 employees of Sri Lankan software companies. The results show that the order of importance of the HRM practices tested here is selection and recruitment, training and development, performance appraisal, and reward and compensation. The results also indicate that selection and recruitment, training and development, performance appraisal, and reward and compensation showed a positive impact with knowledge transfer improvement, as perceived by the professionals in the Sri Lankan software industry.

软件开发公司以其创新的IT产品而闻名。这是由于将知识作为创新的关键驱动力。知识是所有人力资源的关键要素。本研究的目的是调查影响人力资源管理实践的有效性的因素，旨在改善软件公司内部的知识转移。我们建立了一个理论模型，并对其进行了实证检验。在斯里兰卡选择了软件公司，他们的专业人员作为调查的受访者。样本包括斯里兰卡软件公司的203名员工。结果表明，这里测试的人力资源管理实践的重要性顺序是选拔和招聘，培训和发展，绩效考核，奖励和补偿。结果还表明，斯里兰卡软件行业的专业人员认为，甄选与招聘、培训与发展、绩效考核和奖励与补偿对知识转移的改善有积极的影响。
