Impact of Personal and Organizational Factors on Adoption of HRM System for Sustaining Innovation- A Suggested Framework for Indian IT Industry.

This paper tries to isolate the factors of creativity that affect innovation in the context of IT industry in India. A systematic literature review has been carried out using PRISMA guidelines as methodological procedure. The databases like Scopus, Google Scholar and ProQuest were searched to find out pertinent literature with the inclusion criteria restricted to English-language publications that had been published in peer-reviewed journals from 2010-2022. Reports, publications written in languages other than English, and non-academic researches have all been disqualified. The terms "factors of creativity," "factors of innovation", "factors of creativity and innovation","hrm system and sustaining innovation" were used to search databases where the terms "software industry in India" OR "IT industry in India" were specifically mentioned in the abstract or title. There have been multiple stages to the literature selection process. Initially, 4385 articles were found with the search. The number of articles was lowered to 140 in the following stage, which involved eliminating the articles based on their titles. Based on the abstracts, the number is further whittled down to 41 articles. After closely examining the complete contents of each article, finally 14 papers were selected to delineate the factors. An integrated conceptual model has been developed which proposes the adoption of HRM system to foster employee innovation behavior through two-way linkages with personal and organizational factors leading to creativity and innovation. This paper provides insights to HR personnel in the Indian IT industry intending to develop an HRM system that promotes and sustains innovation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
