Globalization has a most important implication for human resource management practice in general. For some, globalization creates pressures for taking best, a transferable set of HRM practices that can spread around the world. It is a force that touches the lives of people living in all countries of the world. In the age of globalization, there is an opportunity to enter new markets, to improved job opportunities and higher remuneration for skilled employees. The challenges are equally numerous. Organizations need to deal with a mature workforce; and they must attract, integrate and maintain multicultural employment pools; human rights and business practices to be successful. The shortage between the demand and supply of talent is likely to increase, notably for high skilled employees and for the next generation of business executives. Global staffing and management of the workforce effectively in diverse culture are the key goals of global human resources. Organizations that manage these challenges effectively will find success and improve the lives of human resources throughout the world.
