Doing IHRM research? Get inspired by these videos

Identifies some key resources for academics doing research in the area

One good thing that came out of the COVID-19 pandemic is that it prompted many organizations to start webinar series. This blogpost provides an overview of more than 40 videos in IHRM that give you access to the latest thinking in this field.

Most of these are webinars, but there are also three professionally recorded panels at on-site EURAM conferences featuring famous scholars in the field, given you the opportunity to see more than just their head and shoulders ;-).

This list will continue to be updated with new videos, so check back regularly on its permanent place: Video resources: International HRM.

IHRM webinar series [2020-current]

Pandemic challenges of 2020 inspired a team of IHRM researchers to organize a series of webinars focusing specifically on international HRM topics. The webinar series has been co-organized by the Centre for Global Workforce Strategy at Simon Fraser University (Canada), the Penn State Center for International Human Resource Studies (USA), and ESCP Business School (Europe).

Since August 2020, the team has managed to organise seminars during most months of the semester. Hats off to the entire team, not just for the initiative, but even more so for their persistance. I know only too well how challenging it can be to sustain initiatives.

Dare to be different, publishing and academic careers

I have cut up my presentation in the IHRM seminar series (#8 Dare to be different! Why (IHRM) Research needs to change?) into shorter videos, allowing easier access to sections of interest. The first two videos show the presentation itself and some recommendations on how to navigate academia as a PhD student or ECR.

The six other videos are short videos on individual topics, mainly based on questions in the Q&A. The first two dealt with publishing in top journals and publishing multidisciplinary research/

The next two videos provide some reflections on how to do research with social relevance and whether or not doing a PhD later in life is a good idea.

The final videos present my personal reflections on my own academic career and more generally on why I think academia can till be a great career option for some.
