Abstract

Following a disaster, humanitarian logistics service providers (HLSP) noted that besides their challenging job they are also facing high employee turnover. The main purpose of this article is to extend a precise assessment platform and provide a theoretical basis for increasing the understanding of the turnover of staff in humanitarian logistics (HL). Based on the identified variables leading to turnover of employee, this paper analyzes these variables affecting turnover of an employee in HL, using interpretive structural modeling (ISM) approach to evolve a model of hierarchy and categorized the interrelationships among these variables. In line with research conducted previously, the study identified and updated 16imperativeemployee turnover variables out of 24 as a key performance evaluation of HL. These variables can be categorized into eight levels, which denote the driving power from higher to lower. The study findings indicate that not all variables to employee turnover in HL require the same level of concentration. Out of 16 variables, there is a group of eight variables that have high driving control and low reliance, these variables are of strategic importance and require maximum attention. Also, another group contains six variables they have a low driving power but high reliance, whereas the one variable is in the linkage category between lower and upper-level variables. This categorization will help relief agencies to distinguish between dependent and independent variables that are imperative for improving the issue of employee turnover in HL. This article is the first to discuss employee turnover using ISM in the context of HL. The developed framework herein provides a precise guideline for HL to enhance their performance, as well as to promote the efficient application of resources through employee retention. Key Words:  Humanitarian logistics, Employee turnover, interpretive structural modeling

Abstract

The research article explores the nuanced relationship between leadership styles and the effectiveness of High-Performance Work Systems (HPWS) within organizations. HPWS are strategic approaches that integrate various human resource practices—such as selective hiring, comprehensive training, employee involvement, and incentive compensation—to enhance organizational performance. Leadership plays a pivotal role in the successful implementation of HPWS, influencing organizational culture, employee engagement, and the overall effectiveness of these systems. This study delves into how different leadership styles, including transformational, transactional, and servant leadership, influences the deployment and sustainability of HPWS. Through theoretical analysis and examination of empirical studies, the research identifies key challenges in aligning leadership with HPWS, such as resistance to change and cultural misalignments, and proposes strategies to overcome these obstacles. Additionally, real-world case studies illustrate the practical implications of leadership on HPWS outcomes, providing insights into how organizations can harness leadership to enhance the success of HPWS. The findings highlight the importance of strategic leadership development and the need for leaders to embody the values and behaviors that HPWS promote. This study contributes to the understanding of the critical interplay between leadership and HPWS, offering valuable perspectives for researchers, practitioners, and organizational leaders aiming to leverage HPWS for improved performance and competitive advantage.
