1 The internationalization of human resource management
“Globalization is the most progressive force in the history of human-kind. It has heralded more rapid improvements to more people than any other human intervention.”1Ian Goldin and Robert Muggah (World Economic Forum Website, 2020)
“For the past 30–50 years, the world has been undergoing a vast process of globalization, a term that describes a state of heightened interconnectivity between nations, regions, peoples, and cultures, and each acting with far greater interdependence. The results of this heightened interdependence due to globalization are evidenced in the economic, political, and social actions and policies of nations, including how we trade, live, and work with one another across borders.”2Dean Foster (Dean-Foster Website, 2020)
