Coming Home: The -Relationship of Expatriate Expectations with Repatriation Adjustment and Job Performance
研究了外派经理的期望是否得到满足与其回国后的调整和绩效的关系,发现期望恰好满足的经理表现更好。
Recently, the topic of expatriate cross-cultural adjustment has received increased scholarly attention; however, adjustment after an international assignment (repatriation adjustment) has received relatively little systematic investigation. This study examined the relationship of managers' expectations with repatriation adjustment and job performance. In general, managers whose job and nonwork expectations were met reported higher levels of repatriation adjustment and job performance than those whose expectations were either underor overmet. Both research and practical implications are discussed.
