A termination that's routine paperwork in one country is a lawsuit in another. Feedback that reads as honest in Amsterdam reads as insulting in Tokyo. A notice period you assumed was standard turns out to be three months, and you find out after you've already sent the letter. This is the part of HR nobody writes about. Almost every resource out there quietly assumes you work in one market, under one legal system, with one set of cultural expectations. The moment you cross a border, you're improvising. So I'm building HR Without Borders — a global community for HR and people professionals who work across cultures and jurisdictions. What it's for: → Ask about local labour law before you hire your first employee abroad → Compare compensation and benefits practices across regions → Pressure-test a policy with people outside your bubble Every answer comes from a practitioner who's actually done it in that market. Not a consultancy brochure. Coordinators in their first year, CHROs running teams in ten countries, consultants, founders wearing the HR hat — all welcome. No pitching, no recruiting posts, no gatekeeping. If you've ever been the only HR person in the room, trying to figure out a country you've never worked in: this is for you. Comment or DM me and I'll send you the link. #HR #GlobalHR #PeopleOps #FutureOfWork
