AI and Digital Technologies across Human Resources Management: Selected Pathways to Organizational Performance and Business Success
Marzena Stot red.
Artificial intelligence and digital technologies are no longer merely tools that support human resources management (HRM). They increasingly shape its architecture and decision-making processes, as well as the ways organizations attract, develop, and engage employees.
The monograph AI and Digital Technologies across Human Resources Management: Selected Pathways to Organizational Performance and Business Success offers a multidimensional perspective on this transformation across varied organizational contexts, including a university, domestic companies, and multinational companies. The authors examine the application of AI and digital technologies in strategic HRM, managerial staff development, knowledge transfer, recruitment, selection, preboarding, competency management, and career management. They also address intellectual capital, employee creativity in Metaverse environments, and pay transparency.
The publication combines conceptual analyses with empirical research findings, demonstrating how advanced technologies can contribute to organizational performance and business success. It also identifies the conditions required for their responsible use, with due regard for transparency, accessibility, and human agency.
Keywords: artificial intelligence, digital technologies, human resources managemen, strategic HRM, digital transformation, employee development, organizational performance, business success.
