Item Restricted Comparative Analysis of Global Human Resource Management Standards: A Study of Saudi Arabia-Based Organizations and Their Operations in the United States(Loughborough University, 2024) Alkemaish, Ali; Kern, PhilippThis research examines the HRM practices of Saudi Arabia-based multinational corporations operating in the U.S., focusing on cultural adaptations and challenges. Through a comparative analysis informed by Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions Theory, the study explores differences in recruitment, employee retention, performance management, and conflict resolution. Semi-structured interviews with HR managers reveal how Saudi-based MNCs balance traditional Saudi values with the operational flexibility required in the U.S. Findings suggest that hybrid strategies, integrating both Saudi and American HRM practices, enhance cultural adaptation and employee engagement. The study offers practical recommendations for MNCs aiming to strengthen cross-cultural HRM effectiveness.18 0
