1.1 BACKGROUND

The Importance Of Human Resource (Hr) Quality In Achieving Global City Status.

The quality of Human Resources (HR) plays a pivotal role in positioning cities as global hubs of innovation, governance, and economic activity. High-quality HR ensures that cities remain competitive in attracting global investments, fostering innovation, and maintaining sustainable development. For instance, a study by Greutter-Gregus & ZG Greutter (2024) highlights the intersection of smart city development and HR competencies, emphasizing the need for HR systems that adapt to evolving urban challenges. This adaptation allows cities to integrate technology with human capital effectively.

Similarly, Nazimi et al. (2022) identify critical factors that affect HR performance in digital city contexts, suggesting that strategic HR management is indispensable for aligning workforce skills with global urban goals. Furthermore, Stankovi et al. (2021) in their work on urban magnetism argue that quality HR underpins population growth and global city attractiveness, noting the interplay between workforce skills and urban functional development (Link to study).
