Human Resources

As an international manager, your effectiveness can be greatly influenced by your understanding of cultural differences and their impact on staff. Hofstede’s Model of National Culture and Project GLOBE (pp. 583–585 ) details dimensions that help managers identify cultural differences within countries. Write a one-page reflection paper about how this research has increased your understanding of different cultures and how you would use this understanding if managing staff who would be taking on expatriate assignments. If outside sources are used, please adhere to APA style when creating citations and references for this assignment. APA formatting, however, is not necessary.

Develop a working framework to guide a Human Resource function to better align itself with the strategic business units of an organization. Further, use the same framework guide to develop a human capital profit process (developing, nurturing, and rewarding people) to aid the organization’s bottom line and to better align the human resources function with other strategic business units.

The assignment should be no more than two pages in length (not including cover and reference pages). The assignment should be APA formatted.
