by Vladimir Pucik, Schon Beechler, and Anne-Valerie Ohlsson
Published 31 December 2008
Providing a framework for thinking about the role of human resource management in global enterprises, this fascinating book investigates the contribution of human resources in controlling the inevitable management tensions emerging in the global enterprise. It covers topics such as: strategic perspectives on global HRM, enhancing horizontal coordination, transnational leadership development, managing performance in a global context, developing shared culture, and global mindset. Taking an integrated approach to international HRM, it focuses on key strategic challenges, 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, and as a consequence, this is an invigorating new addition to global HRM literature, of great interest to students, researchers and practitioners in the fields of HRM and international business.
