This book offers a critical, reflective and contextual analysis on human capital and how it was managed globally during the COVID-19 pandemic. It covers macro, meso and micro perspectives, identifies gaps in our existing knowledge and offers implications for the study and practice of global human capital management, post the COVID-19 pandemic. Evidence from the studies in our book suggest that organizations globally employ a mixed workforce, consisting of individuals from various nationalities and cultures. While this brings undoubted opportunity for both employees and firms, one of the challenges in promoting long term growth and global competitiveness, specifically during a global crisis, is how effectively human capital is managed in a professional but humane manner, such that it enhances overall employee engagement and long-term commitment. Overall, this contribution complements the other titles in the Palgrave Studies in Global Human Capital Management series.
