, INTRODUCTION
The research shows that investments in human resources lead to better firm performance

• Resource based view
• Contingency theory
• AMO framework

Resource based view

There are differences in the performances form 2 firms in the same sector (exp.: 2 accounting firms)
=> why do they differ in their performance

• Firm size, proximity, capital, …
• Reputation, corporate culture, …
• Service quality, client satisfaction




Resources work together (bundles of resources) to provide a basis for competitive advantage

• Puts the company in a superior business position
• Identify things that the company does particularly well relative to its competitors
• Fundamental to a firm’s strategy = need for alignment

For resources to establish a sustainable competitive advantage, several conditions must be present

• Must provide value = requires heterogeneity
• Must be rare
• Must be inimitable
• Non-substitutable

So yes! Human resources can be a source of sustained competitive advantage
