Technological change in human resources environment: A bibliometric analysis

BACKGROUND: This study explores the evolving landscape of technological change within human resources environments, synthesizing a systematic review of 819 research papers from 1990 to May 2024. OBJECTIVE: The main goal is to use bibliometric analysis to find important themes and clusters in the study of how organizations change technology, fill in important gaps, and suggest new research directions. METHODS: The Bibliometrix package in R software and VOSviewer were used to systematically look at keyword co-occurrences to map out six different thematic clusters. This gives us a structured way to understand the theoretical and practical effects of technological change in different areas of human resources. RESULTS: The findings highlight crucial areas necessitating further investigation, particularly concerning organizational change and technological adaptation across sectors, providing a foundation for comprehensive research agendas. CONCLUSION: This study contributes valuable insights into the implications of technological change in organizational settings, guiding future research endeavors and fostering informed decision-making within dynamic and evolving environments.
