Abstract

This blended-learning course examines the theories and practices of international human resource management (IHRM). The course addresses the core issues in IHRM. The topics of the course can be divided into three broad themes: (1) traditional approaches to IHRM (eg. Expatriate management) (2) new perspectives on IHRM (eg. Managing people in cross-border mergers and acquisitions, alternatives to expatriate assignments, ‘global’ careers), and (3) the link between firm strategy, capabilities and HRM.
