Synopsis

Amidst global economic uncertainties and changing technologies, this book investigates how human capital continues to be an intangible asset at macro, meso and micro levels. It addresses cutting-edge research, providing an interdisciplinary overview of how human capital is being developed and managed across the globe.

The book examines key topics including migration, foreign direct investment, gender gaps, geopolitical tensions and economic crises. Through cross-cultural and institutional perspectives, expert contributors assert that augmenting human capital can result in stable economies, technical innovations, financial inclusion, equality and improved education. They provide insights into how different governments navigate through human capital development and management whilst dealing with other concerns at a national level.

Augmenting National and International Human Capital is a valuable resource for students and academics in human resource management, international business, organisation studies, economics and finance. It is also an insightful read for practitioners and policymakers involved in international business and human capital management.
