Reihe: Global HRM

The third edition of The Global Human Resource Management Casebook provides a wide range of international teaching cases exploring contemporary human resource management (HRM) challenges. Each case focuses primarily on one country and illustrates a critical HRM issue confronting managers and HRM practitioners. This real-world application provides students of HRM with a unique opportunity to examine how key HRM theories and ideas translate into practice.

The case studies emphasize the national and cultural contexts of HRM, providing readers with a global understanding of HRM practices like recruitment, reward systems, diversity, and inclusion, as well as recent developments including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, remote working, sustainability, and digital transformation. In this edition, the editors and authors have made significant updates to reflect recent developments in the field and cover a broader range of countries. The authors also delve into new industries including consulting, energy, healthcare, IT, and education. With 31 international cases followed by further reading and learning resources, this extensive collection is an invaluable resource for any student seeking to explore contemporary HRM on a global basis.
