There is an update regarding the country assignment on the behalf of my group which includes (Aditi, Neha Jain,Sahil Mehra,Smachus and Harsh singal), we have choosen country Japan and Company Toyota. The findings are about how Toyota is having competative advantage over other global players, n how strong are their human resources.
ReplyDeleteThe fundamental reason for Toyota's success in the global marketplace lies in its corporate philosophy – the set of rules and attitudes that govern the use of its resources. Toyota's philosophy of empowering its workers is the centrepiece of a human resources management system that fosters creativity, continuous improvement, and innovation by encouraging employee participation, and that likewise engenders high levels of employee loyalty.
And also the japanese culture, how it is different from American culture like
1)General Careers and Slow Promotions
2)Corporate Decision-Making
3)Employee Controls and soooo on.......
And also Studied the relationships between the
headquarters/business units of Japanese firms and their subsidiaries in Asia, in terms of
international human resources (HR) management, and those of American and European firms.
> Japanese firm "TOYOTA" is to manage the
Japanese expatriates at their subsidiaries in Asia; they have little involvement
with the management of local employees. And American companies have very strong control over the Expatriates in Asia because Japanese firms are highly sensitive to local practices in
Korea and Taiwan, it is difficult for the Japanese firms to fully transfer their
Japanese human resources management systems to these countries. Skill formation systems, especially those of integrated skils.
So the searches made till the time covers :
firstly introduction to the Toyota, n reason for its success.
Secondly about the japanese corporate culture, which actually reflects the Toyota's culture .
Thirdly Global view on japanese expatriates working in internationally (Asia) in comparison to American and Europeans. How the human resources are Internationally managed.How do the headquarters human resources department of the firm manage their employees worldwide?
Further we will work on What are the strong and weak points of the international human resources management systems of Japanese Firm Toyota?

There is an update regarding the country assignment on the behalf of my group which includes (Pankaj, Ankur,Nitin,Amit Chawla and Gaurav Sachdev), we have choosen country Switzerland and Company Nestle. HR policy followed by switzerland is given below:
ReplyDeleteHR Policy
Joining Nestlé
The long-term success of the Company depends on its capacity to attract, retain and develop employees able to ensure its growth on a continuing basis. This is a primary responsibility for all managers.
The Nestlé policy is to hire staff with personal attitudes and professional skills enabling them to develop a long-term relationship with the Company.
Therefore the potential for professional development is an essential standard for recruitment.
Each new member joining Nestlé is to become a participant in developing a sustainable quality culture which implies a commitment to the organisation and a sense for continuous improvement leaving no room for complacency.
Therefore, and in view of the importance of these Nestlé values, special attention will be paid to the matching between a candidate's values and the Company culture.
Career Development
A unique approach Training International assignments
-People are their greatest asset, and they place as much importance in their professional development as in the research and development of their products.
-All careers are unique; however, one factor that cuts across most of them at Nestlé is international exposure and travel as well as assignments in different countries.
-From the factory floor to the top management, training at Nestlé is continuous. And because it is mainly given by Nestlé people, it is always relevant to your professional life.
-Throughout the world, each country runs its own training programmes (e-Le@rning, classroom courses, external courses), and we have five training centres in France, UK, Spain, Mexico and Brazil.
Rive-Reine: creating 'agents of change'
Their International Training and Conference Centre in Switzerland is where Nestlé people from all over the world meet to exchange information and ideas in seminars and training courses. Its closeness to their Vevey headquarters means that their general managers actively participate as speakers and are available for Q&A and discussions with the participants.
Rive-Reine offers a wide variety of courses, all aimed at creating leaders who will prove to be the 'agents of change' to keep Nestlé not just in tune with but ahead of the times - and the competition!
The opportunities never end
They hope the training you receive at Nestlé - and specifically at Rive-Reine - will form the basis of a successful local or international career.
They can't guarantee you'll ever know everything about working at Nestlé. But they hope you'll always want to learn more.

This is update on the country assignment on behalf of my group members who are as follows puja priyadarshani,ankita goyal,nibha goyal,munish kaul,rachit aggarwal. We have choosen the country england (uk) and our company is cadbury Schweppes.
ReplyDeleteCadbury Schweppes is the leader in the confectionary market
they consider their employees to be the most important assets of the organization, and have decentralized their decision-making processes.
it has given the decision-making authority to its employees so that they will be able to interact with the customers more effectively
Cadbury Schweppes has done so in order to maintain an organizational structure that addresses cultural differences.
As now cadbury has been taken over by kraft foods soo some new strategies are now adopted will will be discussed
Kraft Foods has confirmed it has had an initial takeover bid for Cadbury rejected but said it intends to work towards a deal that would create a $50bn food industry powerhouse.
it was very emotional for hr of cadbury takeover by kraft.
