In writing this paper the author has consciously stood apart from his earlier works and attempted to dispassionately review his own position so that some degree of clarity of thought might emerge in the process. The paper is based on the author’s contribution between 1992 and 2012 to this subject and which has been used as the basis for several doctoral level investigations under the author’s guidance. They had played a major role in helping the author to crystallize his views. To these scholars, therefore, the author’s gratitude is unflinchingly extended. Management has been described as being concerned with and based on the science of decision making and operating from the foundations of the art of decision executing. Hence, research in the area of modern Human Resources Management, especially, is both interesting and challenging having its one foot planted in industrial sociology and industrial psychology while the other placed in supply chain management and organisational restructuring. Hence, the argument of this paper is more relevant to serious research scholars and to those management teachers who wish to pursue rigorous academic research. This is not meant for those in the cut-copy-paste league, which unfortunately is, of late, becoming quite prevalent within the Indian academia.

Clear Vision

Due to their nature and market position, service companies are committed to excellence. But to achieve excellence they must have a clear vision of their product that gives them the best competitive advantages and guides the resources of the company toward success. Human resources management is a tool that has been implemented to develop human potential; service quality depends on understanding the processes and tools that promote a positive attitude in members of an organization and a greater commitment to meeting management goals. These elements are translated into concrete actions, which can be seen in the mechanisms that ensure client satisfaction. The new information development culture is based on three elements: first, globalization, which has created a world market that is not constricted by time and space; second, a business model and opportunities based on networked economic activity; and finally, interdisciplinarity, a fundamental mechanism for managing resources. In this work, we seek to identify the factors that influence a company’s human resources management and service quality. What factors influence modern human resources management in companies facing technological and administrative changes requiring an adequate level of service quality? The content is related to human resources management, service quality, and factors that influence both areas, specifically in the case of urban transportation companies, because they are an indispensable resource for society providing a service directed at the inhabitants and tourists of the selected region.

The article deals with a complex and original field of analyse – the role that concepts such as beliefs, attitudes and values can entail in the modern human resources management techniques that are dealing with employee’s motivation. Nowadays employees have a complex approach regarding motivation. Especially when we speak about big organisations such as multinational companies, we will find complex jobs having many tasks and a complicated network of inter-relations within the organisation. In such cases, as we speak about middle and top management positions, employee’s motivation is relying on different types of motivation: intrinsic and extrinsic altogether. The substantiation of an efficient motivational strategy can be based on the link between beliefs, attitudes and values of the employees and their motivation development process.
