This document discusses how culture impacts human resource management practices internationally. It defines culture as the values, attitudes, and meanings shared by a community that influence lifestyle. Culture can affect employee management through attitudes towards power and authority, tolerance for ambiguity, interpersonal trust, and preferences for leadership behaviors. National culture also shapes specific HR issues like selection, training, performance reviews, and rewards. Additionally, non-cultural factors at the individual level like education and position, and at the organizational level like market conditions, technology, size, and organizational culture also influence HR management style.
