Description

This literature review skilfully weaves together the major aspects of globalisation that should be the concern of any HR professional working in a global environment.
It looks at:
* the different theoretical approaches to international HRM from the 1970s to the present day;
* the developing roles of the global HR practitioner;
* the challenges and complexities of international management.
The report provides an analysis of the key challenges, the major milestones, the linkages and how thinking has evolved and will continue to evolve for what faces the future of HR in the global HR world.
