Institute for Human Capital Management

“The people make the place“ - we are convinced that people are the key to the success of organizations. And that human resource management is not everyday knowledge that everyone has and can do. We close the gap with well-founded research and teaching.

In our research and teaching, we focus on the basic mechanisms of human resource management: companies need to move sufficient numbers of suitable people into suitable positions at the right time. Fair performance management and a transparent compensation policy ensure that this potential is turned into results that make everyone better off: Employees, companies, and society. We use appropriate research designs and data as well as statistical methods to produce robust research results, which we translate into theoretically sound and practice-relevant teaching. We present our research at academic conferences and in exchange with practitioners. Our research is regularly published in the world’s leading journals.
