SUMMARY:Mohan Thite, “Global Search for Talent: Lessons from Indian IT Services
Multinationals in China”
DESCRIPTION:\nThe information and communication technology (ICT) service
s business is primarily driven by the quantity and quality of software t
alent\, available locally and globally. Accordingly\, global talent mana
gement (GTM) strategy is fundamental to the internationalization strateg
y of Indian ICT services multinationals\, particularly in China. Through
in-depth interviews of senior managers at the headquarters and Chinese
subsidiaries of four well-known Indian ICT services multinationals\, thi
s research study critically examines the conceptualization and implement
ation of their GTM strategy by focusing on the quality of software talen
t pool in China\, the strength of case study firms’ employer branding in
the Chinese ICT services sector\, control and coordination issues in ro
lling out global HR policies to Chinese subsidiaries\, and the challenge
s of workforce localization. In the process\, it contributes to our unde
rstanding of the strategic orientations and operational challenges of em
erging market multinationals in other emerging economies\, in the contex
t of global mobility and the management of talent.\n\nMohan Thite is an
associate professor at Griffith University\, Australia. His career as a
HR professional spans over thirty years\, both in industry and academia.
His research and publications cover a broad range of management areas\,
including strategic HRM and knowledge management\, e-HRM/HRIS\, interna
tional HRM\, multinationals from emerging economies\, and global mobilit
y of talent via offshoring and skilled migration.\n\nFor more details: h
