(1) Top Management Philosophy—To some extent personnel management philosophy is based on
the experiences, education usually by their actions and permeate every level and department of the
organisation.

(2) Changing Environment—Fundamental changes occurring in environment also influence
personnel management philosophy.

Such factors are

(a) Dissatisfaction among the workers due to their getting such employment for which they are
over qualified. This not only affects the quality of work but also compel the management to learn how
to motivate a better educated worker.

(b) People are getting more interest in choosing a life style and career than a job. This needs that
personnel philosophy should be so changed as to make the career development and to make the work
force more consistent with the changing interests of the workers.

© New changes in law require that no discrimination should be made in providing equal
employment opportunity on the basis of age, sex, caste, religion etc.

(d) Basic work values are changing. Previous "work ethics" motivated workers to work hard. With
the decline of the ethics, motivating employees is becoming is difficult task.

(3) Ones' Assumption about People—Personnel management philosophy is also influenced by the
basic assumptions one makes about people.

(4) Need to motivate people—Managers get things done through others and therefore, they are
destined to fail as a manager if they cannot motivate employees to get their job done. So methods of
motivation also influence personnel management philosophy.
