Book excerpt: Research on human resource management (HRM) within Western economies has shown that HRM has significant influence on organisational performance and sustained competitive advantage. The research literature demonstrates that high organisational performance is characterised by effective performance of HRM departments. A specific aspect of this research is around the contribution of HRM to organisation and strategic management in terms of particular roles played by HRM. The roles of HRM encapsulate a number of interrelated HRM functions, identified through empirical research in Western contexts. This thesis evaluated the effectiveness of HRM departments within an Asian emerging economy context by examining the roles of HRM and perceptions of the effectiveness of these roles held by specialist human resource managers compared to line managers. The framework of human resource roles used in this study is adapted from the framework developed by Ulrich and his associates: Administrative Expert, Employee Champion, Strategic Partner/Change Agent, and Talent and Resource Manager. The study compared and contrasted HRM departments in privately-owned firms from those of foreign-investment enterprises to allow some consideration of the impact of Vietnam's unique national culture on the evolution of HRM practice.
