This paper examines the changes in administrative personnel assignments after the incorporation of national universities from the perspective of strategic human resource management (SHRM). SHRM assumes that organizational strategies determine the human resource management (HRM) approach and that the HRM approach affects organizational performance.

The three main issues discussed in this paper are as follows: (1) The national government and national universities have changed their HRM policies, such as the location of personnel authority for national university administrative managers and the selection of personnel for managerial positions, based on their strategies. (2) The career resources of managers have changed as a result. (3) These changes vary from university to university.

This paper points out that the reason for this change in career resources is that after incorporation, the budget and personnel systems change, and there are fewer situations that required negotiations with the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and more situations that require familiarity with the university’s internal situation and understanding of the university’s unique systems.

This study suggests a way forward to examine the relationship between strategy, human resource management, and organizational performance in national universities.
