| dc.description.abstract | This research investigates the status of Human Resource Management (HRM) practices in international organizations in Ukraine. The focus of this research is HRM differences toward expatriates and host country nationals (HCNs), and the impact of cultural trainings/onboarding on the collaboration of both groups. The study is built on Elton Mayo's Human Relations theory, and Configurational theory by John E. Delery and D. Harold Doty. These theories proclaim that strong interpersonal connections and synchronized HRM practices toward the staff lead to a high level of effectiveness for the whole organization. The data for this research was gathered through the open survey, where 46 expatriates and HCNs left their feedback on the status of HRM practices in their organizations. Participants presented organizations working in various fields: defense sector, culture, education, embassies, and others. The key findings of the research indicate differing perceptions of HRM practices and their impacts between HCNs and expatriates. HCNs report that HR differences influence negatively their perception of equality in the organization and basic work processes. More than half of the expatriates don't see these correlations. From the training side, it was identified, that cultural onboarding is a necessary step for strengthening working practices between HCNs and expatriates. These results contribute to the existing HR academic literature and deepen knowledge in the field of local and international staff cooperation in international organizations. | en |
