Abstrac t: Human resource management (HRM) does not occur within a vacu um: Managing people in the workplace is influenced by an array of contex tual factors, especially at an international level. I suggest an "instit utional multiplicity" approach to researching, teaching, and practicing international HRM to address this complexity. This approach involves con sidering multiple layers of context—strategic, HRM systems, organization al, (inter)national, and temporal—when developing and implementing HRM p ractices globally. Rather than controlling context away, the institution al multiplicity approach involves exploring the embeddedness of manageme nt practices across this broad range of contexts. Much of this theorizin g has been informed by the CRANET research network of scholars who exami ne organizational HRM policies and practices, spanning over forty countr ies and three decades.
