employees working in 190 countries. In
other words, Siemens became a world
leader by pursuing a corporate strategy
that emphasized diversifying into
hightech products and services, and doing
so on a global basis.With a corporate
strategy like that, human resource
management plays a big role at Siemens.

require more focus on employee selection,
training and compensation than in the
average firm, and globalization requires
delivering these sevices globally.

HR strategy in several points. These
include:
i. A living Company is a learning
Company. The high-tech nature of Siemen’s
business means that employees must be
able to learn on a continuing basis.
Siemens uses its system of combined
classroom and hands-on apprenticeship
training around the world to help
facilitate this. It also offers employees
extensive continuing education and
management development.
ii. Global teamwork is the key to
developing and using all the potential of
the firm’s human resources. Because it is
so important for employees throughout
Siemens to feel free to work together and
interact, employees feel they are part of
a strong unifying corporate identity. For
example, HR uses cross-border, cross-
cultural experienced as prerequisites for
career advances.
iii. A climate of mutual respect is the
bais of all relationships – within the
Company and with society. Siemens
contends that the wealth of
nationalities, cultures, languages, and
outlooks represented by its employees is
one of its most valuable assets. It
therefore engages in numerous HR
activities aimed at building openness,
transparency, and fairness, and
supporting diversity.
