        abstract = {Cloud-based Human Resource (HR) systems—often referred to as cloud HCM (Human Capital Management) suites—have moved from optional to essential for multi-national organizations (MNOs). This paper synthesizes current literature and market evidence, identifies gaps, and proposes and analyzes a multi-country pilot study on the organizational impact of cloud HCM. Cloud HCM adoption is associated with (i) faster HR cycle times, (ii) improved data quality and analytics maturity, and (iii) better employee self-service utilization. The same organizations report nontrivial challenges around cross-border data privacy, systems integration, and change management. We discuss managerial implications for global standardization vs. local compliance, propose a phased adoption blueprint, and offer a future research agenda.},
