Addressing the lack of empirical data on global performance management: developing a research strategy and assessing initial empirical evidence - a research note

摘要

This work aspires to improve the methodological way of empirical data collection and to provide data to validate Global Performance Management (GPM) research frameworks. Despite the existing various conceptual and theoretical frameworks for GPM, the empirical evidence is still in its infancy. We draw detailed implications for the empirical research on GPM based on the challenges already outlined in cross-national and cross-cultural research methodology. Our research in progress focuses at deepening our knowledge for investigating GPM using the interplay between frameworks and secondary data from case studies on GPM systems in European MNCs.
