Strategic HR Development Models
Strategic Human Resource Development (SHRD) models serve as frameworks to align HR practices with organizational goals, emphasizing adaptability, competency, and performance optimization. Geethanjali et al. (2024) propose that SHRD models are crucial in enhancing organizational performance through efficient management of human resources in line with strategic objectives (Geethanjali et al., 2024).
Jiang and Li (2019) focus on the relationship between HR practices and firm performance, highlighting the importance of integrated HRM systems in fostering sustainable competitive advantage (Jiang & Li, 2019). Additionally, Wright et al. (2005) explore new modes of strategic HRM in a global context, emphasizing the role of HR practices in addressing globalization's dynamic challenges (Wright et al., 2005).
Boxall and Purcell (2000) advocate for "best-fit" models of SHRD, arguing that HR strategies become more effective when tailored to specific organizational contexts (Boxall & Purcell, 2000). Furthermore, Sheehan (2005) emphasizes the integration of SHRD within broader organizational structures, proposing a model to bridge the gap between HR policies and business strategies (Sheehan, 2005).
Best Practices From Other Global Cities
Best practices from global cities showcase the integration of innovative governance, infrastructure development, and socio-economic strategies to enhance global competitiveness. Chakravarty et al. (2021) provide a multidisciplinary analysis of global cities, identifying strategic investment in human capital, infrastructure, and technology as foundational. For instance, New York and London leverage their financial sectors while integrating smart city technologies to maintain leadership in global urban systems (Chakravarty et al., 2021).
Hartley (2019) highlights Singapore as a model of efficient governance, emphasizing outcome-based planning and rigorous public service management. Singapore's strategies align public policies with measurable outcomes, ensuring efficient resource utilization and high-impact urban interventions (Hartley, 2019). These practices are complemented by Tokyo's focus on technology integration in urban management, as Sassen (2016) outlines. Tokyo's investment in green technologies and smart transportation networks bolsters its position as a leader in sustainable urban development (Sassen, 2016).
Longworth (2015) emphasizes social inclusivity and equity as critical components in the success of Scandinavian cities like Stockholm and Copenhagen. Their policies prioritize affordable housing, education, and healthcare, promoting high quality of life while ensuring economic inclusivity (Longworth, 2015).
In the realm of transportation and infrastructure, Seoul's smart transportation systems serve as a benchmark for managing dense urban populations efficiently. The city's integration of real-time data analytics into public transit management demonstrates how technology can optimize urban mobility (Sassen, 2016).
