I am reposting my comments given to another member in CiteHR with the same query. I hope the points below will be useful.

I have been in the HR field for 5 years now. The Best Topic for a Ph.D.

The best topic for a Ph.D. would be "What causes attrition and how to control attrition." All industries are struggling with this problem with no solution. If you can come up with an innovative solution kit, your Ph.D. will be a success.

Salary, work environment, facilities (cab, cafeteria), growth, higher education, and team handling are not the real reasons for attrition. These are just excuses because even the best-paid companies with the best facilities and top management have attrition. It is only because the human mind is never stable, and we don't know what we want; so, we keep hoping and blaming - company, salary, growth, politics, etc.

All the above factors may be part of the reason for attrition. Just work around it and do some case studies in the IT/ITES industries. If you can find a solution, you can even become a Management Guru. All the best.

I am just having 3 years of experience, hence still in the learning stage. However, I would like to suggest the following topics for a Ph.D.:

1. PMS and its effects on employees.
2. Training and business outputs.
3. Employee communication and grievances.

I would suggest that you choose a topic like the study of conciliation machinery, its advantages, and disadvantages. This topic is easy to handle. A visit to the local labor office will provide you with ample case studies.

Best of luck.
