Abstract: | Western companies face numerous challenges in launching successful ventures in Russia due, in large part,to residual problems from Soviet centralized era. This article provides perspectives of specific barriers to effectiveness in the context of Russian human resource management (HRM). Observations are based on the five-year experiences of a group of United States and Russian academicians and practioners. This group has provided intensive training programs in human resource management for 31 different Russian firms across the Russian Federation. Recommendations are offered which may help Western executives address the enormous challenge of changing Russian executives' mindsets which are at the core of HRM problems. |
