abstract = "In the light of sustained and significant workforce challenges, this volume has brought together scholars from across disciplines to assess the state of human resource management (HRM) in the health care setting. This concluding chapter of the book: (1) assimilates broad insights and lessons learned regarding the field of human resource management for health care; (2) acknowledges gaps in research activity, knowledge translation and enactment; and (3) develops suggestions regarding the way forward for HRM in health care research. It begins by considering the potential of strategic HRM to inform research and practice challenges in health care and highlights points of leverage identified in the volume. It then identifies two overarching barriers, disciplinary and comparative, preventing the diffusion of insights from HRM theory and research across disciplines and nations. It closes by highlighting four focal areas for intervention, to support enactment of the potential of HRM for health care.",
