HRM: Germany and Japan
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page paper discussing whether HRM practices in Germany and Japan can be credited with German and Japanese companies’ ability to compete with firms originating in other parts of the world. Certainly it had to have a lasting effect in that leading companies did not lose organizational knowledge as employees changed jobs. Ultimately, however, companies’ inability to manage their work force in the most effective ways possible had to have a negative effect. It appears that companies in these countries maintained their competitiveness in spite of HRM practices rather than because of them. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

[ send me this essay ]
20 pages in length. With the impact of business behavior such a prominent aspect in today's better understanding of commerce and its applications, it is somewhat difficult to determine which element of HRM is more important than another with regard to conduct. From Enron to WorldCom to Martha Stewart, one is hard-pressed to extract such requisite components as ethics, security and protection (for stockholders and employees alike) from such companies that blatantly disregard the fundamental formula of good business. Indeed, these factors that occur – often to a much lesser degree in far reaches of the business community – can be traced back to the absence of a core ingredient necessary for all HRM: communication. Bibliography lists 16 sources.
