"This is a much-awaited book that explores HR management from an "Asian" viewpoint. Written by experts who have in-depth experience in Asia, this book gives managers timely examples, war stories and case studies of organizations that have struggled to manage the diverse HR needs in the Asian environment." "Most modern HR books address global issues that are short of local context. What makes this book important is the historical and cultural context coupled with Asian-focused experiences - making it a rare tome."--BOOK JACKET.
