The first stage of a two‐stage research project on the relationship between human resource management (HRM) and strategic business planning (SBP) is described. Based on data collected from senior human resource executives in 10 Cleveland area companies, a typology of HRM‐SBP linkages is developed. Factors which appear to influence the extent of HRM‐SBP integration are identified and discussed. An agenda for future research is provided.
