Principles and Practice in Global Context

Global Human Resource Management

Global human resource management, also referred to as international HRM, is an umbrella term that covers all facets of the HR, payroll, and talent management systems of a company that work internationally. As technological innovations make it easier for organizations to conduct business across the world, global expansion has become an increasing reality—if not a necessity. Likewise, it’s essential for these multinational organizations to have the right HRM software in place that’s capable of serving employees working around the globe. (Ultimate Software, 2019)This is where approaches to handle global human capital come in. Using robust HRM tools will help ensure that all workers remain active, cooperative and committed organizational contributors.

Objectives of global HRM as follows             
·         Create a local appeal without compromising upon the global identity.
·         Generating awareness of cross cultural sensitivities among managers globally and hiring of staff     across geographic boundaries.
·         Training upon cultures and sensitivities of the host country.

Maslow Theory
Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a psychological motivational concept containing a five-tier model of human needs, frequently represented within a pyramid as hierarchical levels. Needs in the hierarchy lower down must be met before individuals can take care of higher needs. From the bottom of the hierarchy upwards, the needs are: physiological, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. It can be stated as follows,
SMART Goals

Its criteria are commonly attributed by the concept of Objectives to Peter Drucker's management. The first known use of the term occurs in the November 1981 issue of Management Review by George T. Doran. Since then, Professor Robert S. Rubin wrote about SMART in an article for The Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology. (Mind Tools Ltd, 2019) He stated that SMART has come to mean different things to different people, as shown below,
                     Specific (simple, sensible, significant).
                     Measurable (meaningful, motivating).
                     Achievable (agreed, attainable).
                     Relevant (reasonable, realistic and resourced, results-based).
                     Time bound (time-based, time limited, time/cost limited, timely, time-sensitive).

What Is an Autonomous Work Group?


Similar to an individual with autonomy at work, an autonomous work group is a team of employees granted autonomy or independence over the work they do within an organization. This autonomy includes independent decision-making related to a specific work function, project or job and independent freedom to assign individual members specific tasks within the group. (Leaf Group Ltd. , 2019)
Toyota production system

The Toyota Production System (TPS) is an integrated socio-technical system developed by Toyota (automotive manufacturer) to efficiently organize manufacturing and logistics, including the interaction with suppliers and customers, to minimize cost and waste.  Mr. Nampachi Hayashi claims that TPS should have been called “Toyota Process Development System. (BPI, 2019)

Stages of Team Development

This process of learning to work together effectively is known as team development. Research has shown that teams go through definitive stages during development. Bruce Tuckman, an educational psychologist, identified a five-stage development process that most teams follow to become high performing. He called the stages: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. (Lumen Learning.Ltd, 2017)
