Dear IM Division members,
My apologies for cross-listing.
The 2nd edition of "Managing a Global Workforce: Challenges and Opportunities in International Human Resource Management" has just been published by M. E. Sharpe. Coauthors Charles Vance and Yongsun Paik have made some significant changes and improvements in this new edition to reflect recent global economic developments. They argue that the global economic crisis has made the war for talent more intense, and international HRM (IHRM) practices are ever more crucial in sustaining a firm's competitive advantage. One of the unique features of this book is that it covers not only the traditional micro HRM issues such as global workforce staffing and training but also macro HRM issues such as immigration and offshoring. As such, this book provides a more complete and comprehensive picture of the challenges and opportunities that arise in managing an organization's global workforce.

Thank you.
