In addition to the primary authors cadres of industry advisors were assembled of considerable status and representing mainstream organisations and unions. The countries covered total twenty one and, in addition, there is a summary chapter in volume two on issues, trends and implications. Obviously there are other reference points available on single countries and indeed dual country comparisons, but this work is timely, highly relevant and extremely valuable. It is recommended most highly.' – Geoffrey N. De Lacy, Australian Human Resource Institute Journal 'A very welcome and valuable addition to the literature, this two-volume handbook covers current HRM policies and practices in all 21 APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) member economies. For the first time, we have single-source access to a codified set of macro-level HRM profiles for APEC membership economies . . . this project helps fill the need for systematic and accurate HRM data in a very large geographic area, including four continents divided by the Pacific Ocean . . . this is an impressive compilation and will benefit government and business organizations when formulating strategy for employment relations. It will also assist those in the academic sector with the research and teaching of cross-cultural management issues. It should be a welcome addition to most academic and special libraries with interests in the Asia and the Pacific.' – David A. Flynn, Business Information Alert It is becoming increasingly recognised that the way in which human resources are managed is a key source of sustainable competitive advantage for business. Nowhere, Michael Zanko argues, is this seen to be more relevant than in the Asia-Pacific region. The aim of the Handbook and its systematically codified economy human resource management (HRM) profiles is to improve knowledge and understanding of HRM policy and practices in the Asia-Pacific region. It serves as a practical guide to predominantly macro-level HRM policies and practices in ten APEC economies, covering Australia, Chinese Taipei (Taiwan), Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, People's Republic of China, Thailand and the United States of America. The Handbook of Human Resource Management Policies and Practices in Asia-Pacific Economies Volume I will be essential reading for lecturers, researchers, academics and managers concerned with human resource management, international business, management, and cross-cultural studies. The Handbook will also be of great interest to those involved in industrial and employment relations.

Book excerpt: In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly recognized as organizations seek to disrupt and transform processes in order to drive innovation in their business models. However, despite substantial investments in AI implementation, recent research indicates that organizations are struggling to realize the expected benefits. Furthermore, many firms face challenges when it comes to effectively integrating AI applications into their existing organizational systems. To bridge this gap, there is an urgent need to deepen understanding of AI techniques, particularly in the context of Asian organizations, where diverse workforces, cultural differences, language barriers, and skill shortages present unique complexities. Exploring the Intersection of AI and Human Resources Management explores the methodologies, theories, and perspectives related to the application of AI in organizations. Focused on the convergence of Human Resource Management (HRM) and AI, this book aims to provide invaluable insights to academics, researchers, policymakers, organizational managers, advanced-level students, leaders, academicians, and government officials. By shedding light on the tools and applications of AI in optimizing human resources, this book expands the horizons of research and encourages the seamless integration of HRM and AI.
