Abstract

In this study, we investigate how a culturally specific human resource management (HRM) approach influences employees’’ relational identification at the team level, which may in turn influence behaviors of team members. Collecting empirical data from firms in different regions of China, we found that the collectivism-oriented HRM approach has a positive effect on employees’’ team-level relational identification. This team-level identification, in turn, can significantly improve the job satisfaction of the team members and reduce their turnover intentions. We conclude with a discussion of the implications of our findings for academic researchers and practitioners.
