Title: Policies and Practices in Global Human Resource Systems
Description: "To compete in today's business environment, corporations must be globally responsive particularly when it comes to the often neglected task of human resource management. HR executives must view policies and practices from the host country's standpoint, not just his or her own. Duane argues this point in his new book.

He provides a comparative analysis of how the human resource function is planned and executed by corporations in four areas of the world: the U.S. and Canada, Western Europe, Eastern Europe and its newly independent states, and the Middle East. Duane's book offers an argument against the most common practice of expatriate assignments.

Scholars, researchers, upper-level students, and their corporate counterparts in decision making capacities will find it a useful tool as they review, construct, or revise their organization's human resource operations, worldwide, creating new strategies to meet the onslaught of new competition."--BOOK JACKET.
