Abstract

This chapter introduces the concept of evolutionary psychology, a.k.a. sociobiology, and shows how it can be applied fruitfully to better understand human resource management decision-making. The chapter begins with a critique of the present state of human resource management, arguing that it is lacking in innovations. The basics of evolutionary biology and psychology are then described, followed by an explanation of how they can be applied to the field of human resource management. The chapter concludes with a call for greater innovation and inter-disciplinarity in HRM.
