Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to explore practices of Territorial-HRM within a network of shoemakers characterized by informal activities.

Design/methodology/approach

Territorial-HRM is a relatively new topic in management sciences, hence a qualitative methodology has been conducted for better exploration. The methodology relies on the development of two series of semi-structured interviews conducted with several members of the network. Data were collected and analyzed based on the thematic analysis method.

Findings

Results show a type of Territorial-HRM that stands out from that of the formal territorial networks largely described in the literature in management sciences. This form of Territorial-HRM is characterized by the following specific practices: Territorial Based Recruitment (TBR), External Mobility, Labor Loan, Inter-Boss Training and Collective Learning.

Research limitations/implications

This study relies on a single research method with a relatively small number of interviews within an informal network in the Senegalese context. The authors recommend replicating the study in other contexts and developing representative samples in order to test or measure the relationships between grounded concepts of Informal Territorial-HRM.

Originality/value

These results reveal a quite different dynamic of the emergence of Territorial-HRM due to the specificity of the network, its informal nature and its socio-cultural anchorage. The paper adds strong enrichment to the Territorial-HRM field of research by laying out its foundation both in Informal Territorial Networks and in the English speaking academic world.

在非正式领土网络(ITN)中发现领土人力资源管理(T-HRM):一项探索性研究
本文旨在探讨以非正式活动为特点的鞋匠网络中的本土人力资源管理实践。该方法依赖于对网络中的若干成员进行的两个半结构化访谈系列。研究结果表明,与管理科学文献中描述的正式地域网络相比,地域-人力资源管理是一种与众不同的类型。这种形式的属地人力资源管理有以下具体做法:研究局限性/启示本研究采用单一的研究方法,在塞内加尔的非正式网络中进行了数量相对较少的访谈。作者建议在其他背景下重复这项研究,并开发具有代表性的样本,以检验或衡量非正式全域人力资源管理的基础概念之间的关系。原创性/价值由于网络的特殊性、非正式性及其社会文化根基,这些结果揭示了全域人力资源管理出现的截然不同的动态。本文在非正式地域网络和英语学术界奠定了基础,从而极大地丰富了地域-人力资源管理的研究领域。
