        abstract = {Strategic Human Resource Practices (SHRPs) and Market Orientation (MO) are the two major contributors to the financial performance of companies. While SHRPs are related to numerous HR practices that are used for enhancing employee productivity, innovation, and organizational efficiency. Market Orientation indicates putting the customer's needs first and continuously learning about them as well as competitors and responding to change effectively in the market (Narver & Slater, 1990; Kohli & Jaworski, 1990). This is a conceptual study that relies fully on secondary sources, such as scholarly articles and management literature, used for determining the extent to which SHRPs and MO can contribute to financial performance when used in combination. As the study, SHRPs lead to a more engaged workforce, account for less turnover and allow a company to be more easily able to change operations, while MO accelerate sales, increase market share and results in customer loyalty (Jaworski & Kohli, 1993). Besides, merging SHRPs with MO have a cumulative impact that fuels innovation, strategic agility, and long-term viability, which finally result in more significant earnings and organizational expansion (Delery & Doty, 1996). It's evident that the synchronization of internal human resource strategies with external market-oriented approaches will lead to the attainment of sustainable competitive advantage and better financial results.},
