    Economic, social, technological, and political upheaval are transforming the workplace. HR professionals play a crucial role in shaping how these transformations play out and must be equipped to balance a variety of competing interests. In this course, we will debate whether those who manage people must choose between running a profitable business and treating their employees well. We will identify the most pressing HR issues inside organizations, ranging from burnout and workplace flexibility to earnings inequality and career mobility. Drawing on insights from case studies, cutting-edge research, and guest speakers, we will survey how certain organizations are able to provide good jobs while remaining competitive. Students will come away with a menu of practices and policies that benefit both business and employee outcomes.

    With the rapidly changing world of work, this course is essential for anyone planning a career with an international organization or working internationally. In addition, the course is designed for students studying Management, Human Resources, and/or Compensation. We’ll examine differences in pay levels, pay plans, performance., benefits, and the Total Employee Value Proposition. We will investigate the different ways pay levels are determined and incentive plans designed in different parts of the world. The focus of the course will be an appreciation of the historical and cultural reasons why pay levels and pay methods are very different outside of the US and how corporations, line managers and HR professionals can effectively manage those differences.
