Introduction

Organizations must be able to build and sustain a workforce that is competent to operate effectively across the world if they are to compete in today's globalized environment. They must also deal with economic, logistical, legal and cultural differences that impact workforce management.

Attracting and retaining people with the critical skills and knowledge necessary to compete in a globalized environment requires an understanding of how to effectively brand the organization as a preferred employer and how to offer a value proposition that results in a competent workforce. In order to motivate that workforce to put forth their best efforts and to focus them on organizational needs performance must be defined, measured and rewarded fairly, competitively and appropriately.

The strategies and programs for managing the workforce must also be acceptable to employees, consistent with their values and beliefs and their cultural orientation. In order to achieve this organizations must recognize cultural differences, respect the right of people to have different beliefs and reconcile the issues raised by cultural differences.

This competency-based certification qualifies participants as a Certified Human Resource Specialist (Global Human Resources Management) upon successful completion.
