Human Resource Digital Transformation (HRDT): A Study Of Innovation And Capability Through Digitalization And Individual Factors

Abstract

Organizations are being forced to undergo digital transformation due to the emergence of new digital technologies. We gathered input on HRDT from 20 senior HR professionals from international corporations through interviews, and the outcome was a thorough conceptual framework for HRDT in our results. We provide a thorough explanation of our study process, including the steps involved in gathering the sample, collecting data, and analyzing it. An in-depth explanation of the fundamental topics, dimensions, and conclusions follows. Finally, we provide our research contributions for future research directions at the practice and research levels. The findings of this study hold significant implications for HR professionals tasked with continually evaluating current practices to ensure their relevance amid evolving organizational needs. Specifically, we underscore the imperative of technology-driven HR transformation in today's dynamic, uncertain, and complex business environment. We advocate for adopting a dynamic capability approach, asserting that an organization's ability to continuously innovate and adapt is paramount for its survival, superseding any individual or limited set of capabilities. Thus, we offer practitioners the opportunity to holistically assess their organizations, leveraging existing digital infrastructure and architecture while prioritizing personal creativity and capability to foster innovative solutions.
