Research and Markets: An Essential Report on Managing the Global Workforce (March 15, 2010) In today's highly competitive global business environment, organizations need to aggressively compete for new markets, products, services, and top human talent in order to develop and sustain competitive advantage in the global arena. For many years, international firms have effectively managed their financial and material resources globally, leveraging economies of scale, low cost production, currency fluctuations, and the like.

"All companies operate in a global economy, and most will sooner and later face the complexities of managing a global workforce. Caligiuri, Lepak and Bonache provide an invaluable, practical framework, based on the best research available to date, to tie human resource policies to business strategy and to ask all the right questions." Angel Cabrera, Dean of Thunderbird "This is timely! Knowing and understanding where, how, and who does the strategic and support work for your organization is critical. All firms have traditionally determined what work is worth doing and how well it is to be done. But today the issue is where might it be done and the context of the workforce doing it. Insight into this is essential for any HR professional challenged by the global workforce. This book, Managing the Global Workforce, offers a fresh and insightful approach for success in globally competitive environments." Richard W. Beatty, Professor of HR Strategy, Rutgers University "Managing the Global Workforce by Caligiuri, Lepak & Bonache provides a comprehensive review of the challenges, frameworks and practices in global human resource management today. They provide current cases on topics ranging from cross-cultural differences to mobility of work and workers. Based in the core linkage of human resource practices to business strategy, this volume is a must read for human resource and line leaders working in multi-national firms." Marcia J. Avedon, PhD, Senior Vice President, Human Resources and Communications, Ingersoll Rand "This book demonstrates the benefits of international collaboration.
