Tiivistelmä: | This paper operationalizes and tests relationships between a geocentric managerial mind-set, geographic scope and the structural and strategic characteristics of firms and industries. Relationships are tested using data from a survey of senior corporate international HRM managers of large, US-based, manufacturing multinationals. An index of a geocentric mind-set is found to correlate with geographic scope and various aspects of HRM policy and practice; however, no relationship is found with measures of multinational strategy or organizational structure. |
