To learn what this entails, we first explore the various philosophical motivations for why and how concept definitions are reformulated, changed, and improved. This culminates in a general framework and a vocabulary of ten different opportunities for making theoretical contributions via conceptual redefinition, using the concept of charisma as an illustrative case. From our analysis we induce that concept redefinition is both inevitable and necessary as a form of theory development and conceptual maintenance in many fields of inquiry. We discuss the implications of our framework as being a methodological ‘repertoire’ that, we hope, spurs both useful and novel concept redefinitions that help maintain a healthy HRM literature.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48145,"journal":{"name":"Human Resource Management Review","volume":"34 1","pages":"Article 100988"},"PeriodicalIF":11.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053482223000414/pdfft?md5=6d734f52b3886c074d1b89e9ebd6636a&pid=1-s2.0-S1053482223000414-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43985482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on this thematic mapping of the literature, a critical-reflexive approach is outlined to shed light on and challenge taken-for-granted assumptions, interrogate how arguments are brought forth and open up new avenues for future research.

We believe that HRM has significant capacity for addressing disenfranchisement beyond the boundaries of the organization through both functional and normative policies and programs.
