Emerging multinational enterprises (EMNEs) have made a significant impact on the global business landscape by rapidly internationalizing their operations. These enterprises have achieved remarkable success in both developing and developed countries. Consequently, there has been a growing body of literature exploring how EMNEs manage their international human resource (IHRM) practices in diverse international contexts.

While the existing literature on IHRM practices of EMNEs provides valuable insights into the specific management practices implemented by these enterprises in their foreign subsidiaries, it often fails to delve deeper into the broader aspects of their international HRM strategies. Moreover, EMNEs often face challenges in transferring their weak management practices across national borders due to limited experience, resources, and capabilities compared to their developed country counterparts.

To fully comprehend the globalization-related behaviors of EMNEs, it is crucial to gain a deeper understanding of their international human resource management and development practices abroad. This dedicated book aims to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date perspective on IHRM in EMNEs. It will appeal to researchers, academics, and students in the fields of business and management, particularly those with a keen interest in human resource management, firm internationalization, and emerging markets.

In the chapters to follow, we will explore various aspects of IHRM in EMNEs, including the challenges and opportunities they face, the strategies they adopt, and the impact they have on their employees, organizations, and the broader global economy. We will draw upon a range of theoretical frameworks and empirical studies to provide a comprehensive understanding of the complex dynamics that shape IHRM in EMNEs.

By examining the experiences of successful EMNEs and their innovative approaches to IHRM, we will gain valuable insights into the factors that contribute to their global success. We will also examine the challenges EMNEs face in developing and implementing effective HRM strategies in different cultural and geographical contexts.

In conclusion, this book aims to provide a valuable resource for researchers, academics, and practitioners interested in understanding the evolving landscape of IHRM in EMNEs. It will contribute to the existing literature by offering a holistic perspective on IHRM in these enterprises and providing practical insights and recommendations for practitioners seeking to navigate the complexities of international HRM.
