Abstract
Purpose
Whilst performance management (PM) is one human resource practice that is of importance for the company, research in international setting is still in its infancy. This paper focuses on global PM (GPM) in multinational enterprises. The aim is to present advances in the PM research framework, give managerial suggestions and find out future needs and trends for research.
Design/methodology/approach
The approach is to analyze the literature in the research field. Will the transfer of PM be localized or standardized? Diffusion deals with how social institutions are spread from one society to another through certain channels over time and among members of a social system. In this paper, the framework is drawn on institutional theory, the institutional impact of the degree of success or barriers to GPM.
Findings
In the findings of GPM research, the following perspectives were found: tool and process perspective, expatriates (a specific target group perspective), cultural perspective, standardization perspective and comparative perspective.
Practical implications
GPM enables the evaluation and development of the individual as well as organizational effectiveness for multinational companies. Balance between local responsiveness and global integration in subsidiaries is needed.
Originality/value
There is a need to study GPM further. The PM process is similar for domestic and international market, but the difference is in the implementation because it is far more complex in global companies with more issues to consider.

Abstract
The so‐called information revolution has reached the stage where the publishing industry had joined in, beginning a transformation into electronic forms as computer technology impacts in a more significant way on a relatively traditional industry. The transformation required is, over the long term, essentially a change from mass manufacture to flexible manufacturing and requires an increased marketing orientation. Technology is the enabler both of the product and, in part, of organizational change towards innovation cultures provided it is focused on the market and technology users, both within and outside the firm. This paper examines the use of an IT strategy survey of managers and key staff within a publishing organization where they have been selected from both IT and business functions. It demonstrates the method may be useful in creating an awareness of issues to be confronted to create the transformation required not just in terms of IT, but also marketing orientation and organizational modernization. It is argued that this awareness is a necessary adjunct to the formulation of corporate strategy in publishing companies as the electronic era gathers pace.
