In 2001, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the Human Resource Certification Institute and the SHRM Foundation established the Michael R. Losey Human Resource Research Award. The award recognizes
significant past research accomplishments by an HR
researcher or professional
and facilitates advancement of the human resource
management field.
The award is named after Michael R. Losey in recognition of his contributions to the HR profession.
Each year, a single annual award of $50,000 from
the Michael R. Losey Endowed Research
Fund is made to an individual who has contributed to the advancement of the
HR profession. Nominations are encouraged for human resource professionals who have made and will continue to make significant research contributions to the field of HR.
Details about the award are available from SHRM. The first recipient was Edward E. Lawler III of the Center for Effective Organizations in the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern. In 2004, Lee Dyer of the Center for Advanced Human Resource Studies in the School of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell University became the second recipient. In 2005, Dr. Frank Schmidt of the University of Iowa received the honor, and in 2006, it was awarded to Gary P. Latham, Ph.D., Secretary of State Professor of Organizational Behavior at the University of Toronto.
The Michael R. Losey Award is funded equally by SHRM and its
affiliates, HRCI and the SHRM Foundation.
