HRM Practices and MNC Knowledge Transfer

ABSTRACTThe paper supports the idea that organizations can institute various internal structures,policies and practices to overcome transfer barriers and facilitate the degree of knowledgetransfer. I discuss a framework for future empirical research on the relations betweenhuman resource management (HRM) practices and knowledge transfer in multinationalcorporations (MNC). The proposed model is empirically testable, includes a wider rangeof HRM practices and is not limited to one mode of foreign operations only.
