Advances in Human Resource Management in Asia

Human resource management performs a different function and operates very differently in Asia than it does in the US and Europe. This volume demonstrates how human resource management is enacted in Asian countries, how it is changing in response to recent economic events, and how firms are linking indigenous and external human resource management learning. Examples are taken from firms in Japan, China, Korea and Thailand. Contributors with perspectives from both the East and the West show how multinational firms can incorporate Asian thinking and acting into a modern business strategy for successful human resource development in international ventures.Kidd, John B. is the author of 'Advances in Human Resource Management in Asia' with ISBN 9780333948156 and ISBN 0333948157.
