Looking Beyond the Pandemic: What's Next for International HRM?

Speakers

Dana Minbaeva (CBS, Denmark)

Helen DeCieri (Monash U, Australia)

Angelika Zimmerman (Loughborough University, UK)

We have conducted a detailed analysis of key issues in HRM that were amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our research found that the HRM issues emerging during the pandemic also highlighted critical future changes for employees across many types of organizations. The results of our assessment were recently published in the Journal of International Business Studies. As the world is reopening after the pandemic, the key issue on the agenda of firms and public organizations, regardless of size and industry, is how to facilitate the Restart. Reflecting on the recent experiences will help webinar participants not only to "move on", but also to use the experiences from the crisis as an opportunity to nurture new competences and effective pathways towards impactful research in the post-pandemic 'new normal'.

The webinar will be moderated by Elaine Farndale (Center for International HR Studies, School of Labor and Employment Relations, Pennsylvania State University, USA)
