The opening cases provide international perspectives on issues such as downsizing, business strategy, recruitment, incentivising staff and other real business problems that provide background for the material discussed in the chapter. At the end of each chapter a feature called "A Look Back", provides questions that challenge students to address the human resource issues discussed in the chapter's opening case.
