Hrm In Global Firms

People Strategies in Global Firms provides a framework on how to think about the role of Human Resource Management in global enterprises and the contribution of human resources in managing the inevitable management tensions emerging in the global enterprise. Taking an integrative approach to international HRM it focuses on key strategic challenges facing global firms, such as balancing global integration with local responsiveness. This approach to analyzing the HR role is radically different from the traditional format of IHRM textbooks oriented along fragmented functional and operational issues and as a consequence, this is an invigorating new addition to global HRM literature. Topics covered include: Strategic Perspective on Global HRM, Enhancing Horizontal Coordination, Transnational Leadership Development, Managing Performance in a Global Context, Developing Shared Culture and Global Mindset and Linking HRM to Global Strategies.
