"Managing the Global Workforce is THE compendium on global HR and workforce practices. As globalization permeates every facet of our lives, managers have to learn to master the paradoxes of global scale vs. local responsiveness, to design HR practices that leverage across boundaries and adapt to local conditions, and to manage talent worldwide and within countries. This book summarizes research and offers solutions on how to resolve these paradoxes. It is thoroughly researched and well written."

"All companies operate in a global economy, and most will sooner and later face the complexities of managing a global workforce. Caligiuri, Lepak and Bonache provide an invaluable, practical framework, based on the best research available to date, to tie human resource policies to business strategy and to ask all the right questions."
—Angel Cabrera, Dean of Thunderbird
"This is timely! Knowing and understanding where, how, and who does the strategic and support work for your organization is critical. All firms have traditionally determined what work is worth doing and how well it is to be done. But today the issue is where might it be done and the context of the workforce doing it. Insight into this is essential for any HR professional challenged by the global workforce. This book, Managing the Global Workforce, offers a fresh and insightful approach for success in globally competitive environments."
—Richard W. Beatty, Professor of HR Strategy, Rutgers University
"Managing the Global Workforce by Caligiuri, Lepak & Bonache provides a comprehensive review of the challenges, frameworks and practices in global human resource management today.

Based in the core linkage of human resource practices to business strategy, this volume is a must read for human resource and line leaders working in multi-national firms."
—Marcia J. Avedon, PhD, Senior Vice President, Human Resources and Communications, Ingersoll Rand
