APPROACHES TO SELECTION
• 1) Ethnocentric Selection :-
• Staffing decisions are made at the
organization's headquarters
• Subsidiaries have limited autonomy
• Key jobs at home and abroad are filled by
employees from headquarters
• Nationals from parent country dominate the
organization at home and abroad
• 2) Polycentric Selection:-
• Each subsidiary is treated as a distinct
national entity with local control over
operations
• Headquarters controls key financial
targets and investment decisions
• Subsidiaries managed by locals but key
jobs with the staff from headquarters
• 3) Regiocentric selection:-
• Control within the group and the
movement of staff are managed on
a regional basis reflecting the
particular disposition of businesses
and operations within the group
• Regional managers have greater
discretion in decisions
• 4) geocentric selection:-
• Business strategy is integrated
thoroughly on global basis
• Staff development and promotion
are based on ability not nationality
• The top management structure is
thoroughly international in
composition
