Reference no: EM131661267
Select any two countries of your choice (for example, Australia and China). Choose one of the countries as the parent-country of your organisation or an organisation you know well (i.e. where the headquarters is located) and the other as the host-country (i.e. where the subsidiary is located).
Imagine your organisation has established a subsidiary in the host-country and has selected you as the global human resources manager to design (and set up) the human resource management (HRM) function of the subsidiary.
Select any two International HRM practices from the following four options:
1. recruitment and selection
2. training and development
3. performance management
4. reward and compensation.
Write a report that discusses the following:
A brief description of your chosen organisation, the host-country and the two International HRM practices from the above options (i.e. briefly explain why these two IHRM practices have been selected with respect to your organisation).
A detailed discussion and analysis of the design and implementation of the two International HRM practices in the subsidiary (i.e. drawing from the relevant literature, analyse how the IHRM practices should be performed in order to be effective).
Include the benefits and the challenges of IHRM practices taking the host-country culture into account.
Based on the above analysis, discuss the following:
Whether IHRM practices should be standardised or localised and why
What kind of control should the parent-company exert on the subsidiary (i.e. structural-formal control or cultural control)
What role the subsidiary should play in the host-country (i.e. global innovator, integrated player, implementer and local innovator).
Please provide brief recommendations at the end (i.e. after the conclusion) to suggest what kind of support the subsidiary will require from the parent-company to implement the chosen HR practices.
Please ensure that all the sections of your report are well connected and there is logical flow in the discussion. Select any two countries of your choice (for example, Australia and China).
