The link between IHRM and GPM might have an impact on company profit and
employeemotivation, butwithout further studies on the subject, wewill not know why or

bigger picture on GPM and focusing not only on numbers, a company can, through
planning, linking to strategy and effective use of staff and tools, create an effective process.
