The relationship between expatriation and career success

Experts are progressively discovering the crucial role of globally mobile talent in today’s competitive business environment and have called the task of securing and retaining these employees the greatest international human resource challenge to date. While many employees willingly accept international work assignments believing in a positive impact on their careers, high-quality research on global mobility and career success is lacking, leaving thousands of ambitious individuals at risk of making shortsighted career decisions. Providing empirical research in this field to better inform employees, employers, human resource practitioners, fellow researchers and academics lies at the core of this work.
