staffing policy can be expensive to implement because training and relocation costs increase when transferring managers from one country to another. Group of answer choices An ethnocentric A eurocentric A geocentric A polycentric

The correct answer is A geocentric.

Explanation:

According to Simon L. Dolan in his book "Human Resource Management", there are four approaches to international human resource management:

Ethnocentric approach: According to this, the headquarters controls the human resources activities, and it is the expatriates from the country of origin who run the subsidiaries. Polycentric approach: Each country is treated as an independent entity, in which some decisions are made locally. Regiocentric approach: staff can be promoted within a region, but usually never to headquarters. Geocentric approach: A transnational philosophy is adopted, seeking personnel with the highest qualification regardless of their nationality.

The process of expatriation of employees constitutes one of the greatest challenges that the organization faces throughout the process.
