This book employs a comparative case-study design strategy and analyses primarily qualitative data from case-study organisations. Although our research program covers several case examinations from the Indian IT industry, in this book we focus on four organisations: two from the BPO sector (covering Recruitment Process and HR Outsourcing firms), and two firms from the IT sector (one each from IT software services and IT product development) for gaining a better understanding of human capital management practices in the India’s IT sector. We explain the variations in human capital management approaches due to the complex interaction between different variables. Given that an associated emphasis of this book is on theory-building and understanding the impact of important factors that shape human capital management in the IT/BPO industry, we follow Eisenhardt’s (1989) recommendation of implementing an inductive approach.
