On Globalizing HRIS




 Simple words-Globalizing means that there is no boundary that allow connectivity and interdependence of the word's markets and business.

In the 4th and 5th week classes, I had explored the topic regarding about the globalizing HRIS. In general, there are four types of HRIS organization models that are Multinational, Global, International and Transnational. Most of the organizations are need to consider 3 different strategic need that drive organization in selecting model-the need for responsiveness through local differentiation, efficiency through global integration and learning through leveraging worldwide innovation and knowledge sharing.
 It had been seem that a global strategy involves a high degree of concentration of resources and capabilities in the central office and centralization of authority in order to exploit potential scale and learning economies. The multinational strategy, on the other hand, represents the opposite view of international strategy. Resources are dispersed throughout the various countries where the firm does business, decision-making authority is pushed down to the local level, and each business unit is allowed to customize product and market offerings to specific needs. For the transnational strategy, it allows for the attainment of benefits inherent in both global and multinational strategies. In my opinion, I think that by implementing the transnational model in organization can give numerous benefits in the organizations. A transnational model represents a compromise between local autonomy and centralized decision making. The organization seeks a balance between the pressures for global integration and the pressures for local responsiveness.
