Human Resource Management in an International Context

Human Resource Management In An International Context is designed for those studying HRM as part of an MBA or a postgraduate/undergraduate business and management degree. It will also interest students who wish to gain a greater understanding of HRM issues in their international context and those who wish to practise HRM internationally as specialists or as general managers. The text provides a comprehensive and critical grounding in HRM theory and practice evident in many texts and organisations, but moves beyond this to look at the application and experience of people management strategies in a wide range of different countries and cultural contexts. The focus is not limited to HRM in multi-national companies, but includes practical examples and theoretical insights from a wider range of organisations (public, private and voluntary, manufacturing and service, large and small) from across the globe.
