Mapped to the CIPD Level 7 module of the same name, International Human Resource Management is a critical textbook for all HR students. Structured around the three core areas of cross-cultural HRM, comparative HRM and international HRM itself, this book provides students with a thorough grounding in the key approaches to international HRM.
Packed with global examples and case studies to support learning, this book explores all aspects of international human resource management from global talent strategy, recruitment and knowledge management to the difference in reward systems across cultures and managing expatriate assignments making it essential reading for students on both CIPD and non-CIPD accredited courses.
Supported by 'theory and practice' boxes in every chapter and with reflective activities and learning questions throughout, International Human Resource Management ensures that students without real-world business experience fully understand the main concepts and how they apply in the world of work. This edition now includes new coverage of the impact of the gig economy on international HRM, how technology is impacting HRM across countries and new material on workforce diversity. Online resources include lecture slides and additional case studies.

"A must read for everyone interested in the various facets of International HRM. Fully up-to-date and highly accessible with a unique combination of comprehensiveness and detailed insight."
"This book impressively connects International Human Resources Management (IHRM) to different internal and external contexts. It shows us that a rapidly changing World and its most significant events are shaping a variety of activities within the IHRM, such as managing international mobility, international talent management and reflections on the role of both globalization and deglobalization in shaping the future HRM. This book can be a useful tool for both managers trying to solve problems that hinder their decision-making and students, for whom, according to the latest approach to acquiring knowledge and its use in practice, critical thinking and situational and pragmatic approach are necessary. Taking all these aspects into account I am convinced that this book will be one of the most important that everyone consciously dealing with IHRM will reach for."
"The fifth edition by Brewster, Houldsworth, Sparrow and Vernon is organised into three parts of the institutional and cultural context, aspects of comparative HRM, and IHRM. It is not only up to date with the latest research evidence, but also analyses post-pandemic scenarios, technological advancement, and geo-political dynamics. An understanding of such context-specific developments is critical for managers to develop relevant international HRM practices and policies for their firms to successfully operate globally. This volume should be of great use for both academics and practitioners."
"This book should be in the library collection of anyone interested in IHRM. It covers all the most important issues that determine the shape of IHRM both from the outside and from the inside in a very accessible way. There are very precious considerations regarding economic, political, legal, social, cultural, geographical and technological factors. The most important events that have recently taken place in the world are taken into account as well, such as the Great Recession of 2007-2009, Brexit, the covid-19 pandemic, Russia's aggression against Ukraine, and the development of industry 4.0. It is shown how all these factors and events shape various policies, functions, activities or systems of IHRM and to what extent they should be taken into account when making managerial decisions in this regard. I rate the book very highly in terms of content. It is not only a valuable collection of very up-to-date knowledge in the field of IHRM, from the perspective of management practitioners, but also has special didactic and pedagogical values. The authors took care of its attractiveness from the perspective of students acquiring knowledge on academic courses and equipped it with numerous tools for assimilating new knowledge and strengthening it in practice."
"This fifth edition is a superb revision by four outstanding academics. Together they have substantially revised and updated all the chapters to reflect the new post-Covid era that has ushered in tremendous changes for many crucial IHRM topics including new shapes and forms of globalization, more uncertainly, new forms of global work, more demands for global talent management, and greater needs for MNE resiliency and rapid adaptation in our growing multi-stakeholder world. Overall, this revision is one that academics and practitioners alike will want to have at their fingertips!"
