The growth of multinational, global and transnational enterprises and the proliferation of information and communication technologies have compressed geographic, organizational, and nationalistic boundaries. Human resources managers are confronted with the task of negotiating the strategic drivers of human resources policies, practices and activities at the local, domestic and international levels. Building on, and extending the application of Human Resources Management, this course will examine the models, framework and institutional constraints that are influencing the convergence of international and global systems of human resources management strategies. The major human resources activities of recruitment, selection, performance evaluation, training and development, compensation and separation, organizational values and ethics will be analyzed from an international and domestic perspective. Contemporary issues in human resources, such as knowledge management, growth of the internationally mobile employee, e-commerce, the e-enablement of human resources functions, Internet, intranets, balance scorecard and the mechanisms for policing and managing this diverse configuration in multinational enterprises are studied and applied in research activities and case study analysis.
