Opportunities and barriers of agility and digital processes in HR in SMEs
- Companies are increasingly faced with new challenges and have to adapt to rapidly changing conditions. Agility and digitalization can help companies to overcome problems and offer a wide range of options for implementation. Furthermore, HR departments in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have been facing further challenges for years, such as the shortage of skilled workers and trainees and changing stakeholder requirements. In light of these enduring complexities, it is pertinent to inquire into the efficacy and constraints of leveraging agility and digitalization within SMEs, particularly concerning HR practices. This study endeavors to explore the nuanced interplay between agility, and digitalization within the SME context. The ensuing qualitative study endeavors to dissect this intricate nexus, culminating in the articulation of a hypothesis model aimed at illuminating the intricate dynamics at play.
