The second edition of this Handbook provides up-to-date insight
into ground-breaking research on international human resource
issues today. These issues are faced by multinational companies
which can be as small as one person with a computer and Internet
connection or as large as a medium-sized country. Written by the
field's most distinguished researchers, the book will stimulate
thought for new research and provide a glimpse of where we have
been and where we are going. The book explores issues such as the
importance of linking IHRM activities to organizational strategy
and culture; talent management; staffing; performance management;
leadership development; diversity management; international
assignment and mobility issues; and the role of IHRM in the
management of global teams and cross-border joint ventures, mergers
and acquisitions. The Handbook illustrates that IHRM research is
both theoretically deep and eclectic. Drawing upon a range of
paradigms and perspectives this compendium will prove invaluable
for HRM scholars, doctoral students, and others interested in IHRM
research. Contributors: R.V. Aguilera, A. Bird, I. Bjorkman, J.

In providing an insightful overview of a wide range of global human
resource issues facing MNCs, this pathbreaking Handbook highlights
emergent topics and new research findings that could shape the
field of future IHRM research. Theoretical discussion of the
variables and processes that affect IHRM policies and practices is
provided by renowned contributors with widely differing academic
backgrounds, paradigmatic orientations, and theoretical and
methodological approaches. They explore extensive subject matter
including: * the importance of linking IHRM policies and activities
to organizational strategy * staffing, performance management,
leadership development, and diversity management * international
assignment and mobility issues * the role of IHRM in the management
of global teams and cross-border joint ventures, mergers and
acquisitions. Illustrating that IHRM research is theoretically
eclectic, and drawing upon a range of paradigms and perspectives,
this cutting-edge Handbook will be invaluable to academics and
practitioners with an interest in human resource management,
industrial and employment relations, management and international
business.
