Abstract

The Research Handbook on Human Resource Management and Disruptive Technologies, edited by Tanya Bondarouk and Jeroen Meijerink, is an essential academic resource that delves into the evolving landscape of human resource management (HRM) in the face of disruptive technological advances. Combining contributions from diverse scholars and practitioners, the book presents a rich and multifaceted exploration of how technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, robotics, and blockchain reshape HRM practices, theories and strategies. The editors have successfully curated an intellectually rigorous and practically relevant collection, offering valuable insights for researchers, students and HRM practitioners facing the complexities of technology-driven work environments.

The book’s structure is one of its strengths: it is divided into thematic sections that guide the reader through different aspects of HR transformation. These sections cover a broad spectrum of topics, including talent acquisition, employee engagement, performance management and workplace ethics, all contextualised within the technological upheavals of our time. Each chapter addresses a specific area of interest, allowing readers to appreciate both the granular details and broader implications of technology integration in human resource management. This approach organises the book effectively and provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the interaction between HRM and technology.
