Publication Year:

Abstract (2. Language): 
Many of global researches demonstrated that innovative enterprises are in average twice more profitable than other enterprises. Intensive global competition, higher customer expectations and greater focus on quality have resulted in much greater requirements placed upon employees today than decades ago. The challenge has been to internalize a new type of organizational behavior in order to operate successfully under unfamiliar conditions. It is clear that in creation of innovative enterprise not only technology is important, but also people, culture and communication. Under going globalization process it is important to draw attention that it influences organization employees too, thus human resource development as well. In this paper authors analyze factors impacting global human resource development, globalization’s impact on human resource development process. Mostly authors emphasize influence of culture and speak about opportunities of acculturization.
