Developing a performance management system using soft systems methodology: A Chinese case study. European Journal Of Operational Research, 223(2), 529-540. doi:10.1016/j.ejor.2012.06.029
This reading by Liu et al. reports on the re-design of a performance management system in China that was based on the balanced scorecard approach. As the authors discuss, this approach was found wanting amidst turbulence in the external environment. As you read this item, consider the assumptions made by the authors regarding the use of the balanced scorecard approach, notably the limitations identified; the evidence for changing the performance management system; the evidence behind the approach taken in the new system; and strengths and limitations in the new system.

See also Millmore et al. Chapter 1
Reading 1 presents an overview of the meaning of SHRM and an account of the main drivers behind its importance in business today. There is also a good overview of the major theoretical approaches to analysing what it means to be strategic (the theoretical approaches to understanding SHRM are covered further in the next section). As you read, consider whether there are additional drivers of SHRM today that are not covered.
