Abstract:Human Resource Management (HRM) systems and its implications on the organizational performance received more and more attention throughout the last years. While most strategic human resource management concepts examine horizontal fit, there is a significant lack of literature available examining the vertical fit. However, vertical fit might have implications for the organizational performance as well. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to gain useful insights regarding the vertical fit by analyzing stakeholder interests. To examine vertical fit various stakeholders of different HRM levels and their interests will be analyzed and compared with regard to congruence. Similarities and differences on stakeholder interests and their influence on vertical fit will be studied. Consequences of (in)-congruence regarding vertical fit of HRM will be investigated. Implications will deliver useful recommendations on how to treat and avoid misalignments in stakeholder interests to ensure the establishment of vertical fit.
