"This collection of edited papers from European experts in the field covers all aspects of international human resource management. The articles, following a detailed introduction, range from issues surrounding the strategic role of HRM in staffing, reward management and performance management, to discussions of the dynamics of culture and gender in international management. In doing so, contributors from Europe address key questions of crucial importance to our understanding of IHRM, such as: How do we decide on appropriate international HRM policies and practices? Can we continue to operate the same policies and practices that we have used in the domestic context? How applicable is the US model of HRM to European organisations? What are the key debates and issues surrounding international HRM in the context of Europe?"--BOOK JACKET. "This book constitutes a valuable resource for researchers, teachers and students in the field of international human resource management."--BOOK JACKET.
