  • Survivor Syndrome

    Open AccessPingshu Li, James P GuthrieCHAPTERWiley Encyclopedia of Management2015

    The concept of survivor syndrome is a phenomenon associated with layoffs and downsizing.

  • Unions and the Adoption of High Performance Work Systems

    Open AccessWenchuan Liu, James P Guthrie et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…2009Cited by: 3References: 65

    Previous research on the association between unionization and the adoption of high performance work systems (HPWSs) has yielded inconsistent results.

A disordinal interaction was indicated: employee turnover was associated with decreased productivity when use of high-involvement work practices was high and with increased productivity when use of these practices was low.

  • Individual and contextual influences on self‐assessed training needs

    Open AccessJames P Guthrie, CATHERINE E SCHWOERERARTICLEJournal of Organizational Behavior1994Cited by: 2References: 5

    Reliance on self‐assessed training needs for input into decisions regarding training participation and design is increasingly common. Previous study results indicate that perceptions of training utility influence these self‐assessments. In a sample of 380 managers and supervisors, this study found that training self‐efficacy and managerial support positively influenced perceptions of training utility, while educational level was negatively associ…

  • Human Resource Management and Labor Productivity

    Deepak K Datta, James P Guthrie et al.

    There has been growing interest in the degree to which human resource systems contribute to organizational effectiveness, yet limited research attention has been paid to the contextual conditions that moderate the efficacy of these practices. In this study, we examined how industry characteristics affect the relative importance and value of high-performance work systems. Findings indicate that the impact of these human resources systems on produc…
