Globalization – Many companies have extensive overseas operations. • Success depends upon- Marketing & Managing overseas. • The capability to become global – key determinant of success of Indian firms.
INTER-COUNTRY DIFFERENCES Cultural factors –influence HRM practices & policies. But globalization is blurring national differences in cultures , best depicted by Mc Donald’s.

Legal & Industrial relation factors- - Work councils have there own norms. CODETERMINATION- Employees have legal right to a voice in setting companies policies. - Followed in Germany.
MAKING GLOBAL HR SYSTEM ACCEPTABLE Three best practices :- • Global systems are more acceptable in truly global organizations. • Investigate pressures to differentiate & determine their legitimacy. • Try to work within the context of strong corporate culture.
DO’S • Integrate global tools into local systems. • Create strong corporate culture. • Create global network for system development. • Treat local people as equal partners. • Differentiate when necessary. • Communicate! Communicate ! Communicate. • Dedicate resources for global HR efforts.
DONT’S • Try to do everything same way everywhere. • Yield to every claim “ We are different’ & prove it. • Use local people just for implementation. • Use same tools globally. • Ignore cultural differences. • let technology drive your system design- you can’t assume every location has same level of technology investment.
