Human Resource Management Practices in

¶ … human resource management practices in the organization: personnel director selects the closest relative of the CEO as the best person for the job => if extended to other areas of the organization, this may mean that the personnel selection and resource allocation is not rigorously done as in the U.S. Could lead to nepotism and conflicting situations at the workplace. Need to emphasize to our manager the necessity to gradually change the practice. Different styles of working: doing vs. being.

Our manager will be used with the practice in the U.S. And the capacity of our employees to work long hours in order to achieve the company goals. No such practice in the host country -- people work solely to earn enough and minimize their work. Need to implement a 5-10 years mission statement and policy plans, with consistent goals to include profit maximization and increasing market share. Ensure that the host organization understands the new perception and approach and that they are ready to commit to it.

Pay attention to attitude to change -- "change is impossible," have discussions on implementation of change etc. Bring in motivation to create profit and increase shareholders' value -- remember the organization has never been motivated to make profit. Implementing change might be difficult, but necessary. Find the means by which to implement change and create the premises for it. MEMORANDUM TO: Bill Ref: Your new management assignment in country X. Description of challenges and potential solutions.

You have been selected to work as our new manager for company Y in country X, congratulations on your new position. The country and the company itself present significant challenges that need to be overcome. Our company has invested a significant amount of money and time into the acquisition of this new company and we need to soon show our shareholders that this has been an inspired acquisition.

Your mission will need to turn profit soon, but also to create a team of professionals who are motivated at their job and who will produce results in the next years. The challenges you will encounter include a lack of motivation in their work, no long-term objectives, plans of action or approach and the incapacity to commit to change and accept the non-functionality of their own system. Things are done differently than we are used to here in the U.S. You will need to start by getting to.
