Struggling with HR Metrics in Project-Based Organizations? Seeking Literature and Guidance for My Thesis

Hi, this is Pavan Kotha from the UK. I am pursuing my master's in Project Management and working on my thesis on HR metrics. I am unable to progress with my project as I am unsure of the extent to which I need to focus my research. I need to research how HR metrics are implemented in project-based organizations. Can anyone please suggest me with the required literature and questionnaires?

Hello Simhan,
Sir, actually my proposed title is "HR Metrics: Tool to Maximize and Measure the Dynamics of Project-Based Organizations." A project-based organization refers to the variety of organizational forms that involve the creation of temporary systems for performing purely project activities or tasks. That is, I need to relate/measure HR metrics in the context of a project but not organization/company. I would like to perform research on what HR metrics HR professionals apply/implement in delivering a successful project to the client. I am a bit concerned about the literature review and fieldwork. I am from Northumbria University, Newcastle. Please suggest me.

Kind regards,
Pavan.

Hello Pavan,

First, you need to see if there is any work done in the field you have chosen. If there is not much work done, are there any works on similar situations? If you can't find any, then I suggest you choose another topic.

See if any at HR Metrics And Strategy from Cornell University - Business White Papers, Webcasts, and Case Studies | BNET interests you and then write to the authors.

Found at project management + HR metrics - Google Search.
