Module overview

Consideration of people management must increasingly be cross-national comparative and international in complexion. This exciting new agenda is challenging and problematic. This module examines international developments and comparative difference in the management of human resources, and explores how managers of people may conceive and use the ‘strategic space’ (Vernon (2006) cited in Brewster et al (2016)) they have to productively shape employment relationships in an international environment.
