HR at a Global University

This article "HR at a Global University" in Inside Higher Education, Oct. 15th made me think of the Human Resources perspective. Basically the article was saying that Unviersities are good at applying a Human Resource perspective (focus on people) in the US, but when campus' are opened abroad they have trouble applying that perspective. The article said that instead of having policies, like in the US for faculty going abroad, they have a "non-policy" approach that has led to people not wanting to go abroad. This non-policy approach has led to problems of salaries and decision making.
