Abstract
This course investigates Human Resource Management (HRM) in multinational companies, with a focus on the international management context. It examines how cultural, legal, economic, and organizational differences shape HR practices in different countries and how global companies make choices between standardization and adaptation of HRM strategies and practices across the world. Students will analyze such aspects of the HRM as HR Brand, recruitment and selection, expatriate management, talent development, performance appraisal, compensation & benefits, and compliance within diverse regulatory environments. Through case studies, simulations, and team projects, students will design HRM solutions that enhance organizational performance while respecting local norms and global standards. Emphasis will be made on strategic thinking, corporate culture, ethical leadership, cross-cultural communication, and DIEB approaches. By the end of the course, students will be provided with the comprehensive and integrated knowledge of Human Resource Management in an international setting as well as the approaches to HRM of a globally dispersed workforce which will contribute to sustainable competitive advantage in international contexts.
