Book Synopsis Cross-cultural Adjustment and the Expatriate Spouse: A Case Study by : Maria de Guadalupe Hedo Ortega de Pamich
Download or read book Cross-cultural Adjustment and the Expatriate Spouse: A Case Study written by Maria de Guadalupe Hedo Ortega de Pamich and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-cultural adjustment is often considered the key intervening factor leading to expatriate failure. Research has also found a strong correlation between expatriate and spouse adjustment. Failure of the spouse to adjust to the new environment was given as the number one factor for premature returns. The number two reason was the employee's failure to adjust. Until recently, few studies had examined the adjustment of expatriate employees. The adjustment of expatriates' spouses has received even less attention. For this reason, the study of spouse adjustment offers a potential contribution to the field of international business, since it represents a major gap in the existing cross-cultural adjustment literature. This conceptual gap is the focus of the present research. If spouse adjustment is indeed related to expatriate adjustment and to the outcome of the international assignment, it is important to study the factors that facilitate or inhibit spouse cross-cultural adjustment. By doing so, organizations may gain critical knowledge for influencing the outcomes of international assignments and improve their human resource practices. In an effort to understand the factors that facilitate or inhibit spousal cross-cultural adjustment, this study will examine the role of different variables believed to influence the spouses' adjustment, on a group of expatriate spouses living in Switzerland.

Book Synopsis Expatriates predeparture training: An investigation into the approach of two German-based MNCs by : Dennis Barbian
Download or read book Expatriates predeparture training: An investigation into the approach of two German-based MNCs written by Dennis Barbian and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2006-10-27 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,2, Northumbria University (Newcastle Business School), language: English, abstract: Increasing globalisation of business has led to a constant rise in the use of expatriate managers who are sent abroad for temporary assignments. Much of expatriates’ cross-cultural contact has, however, not been successful. In the majority of cases the high incidence of expatriates’ inability to adapt to foreign cultures originates from the neglect of crosscultural preparation which academics advocate as a means of facilitating this adaptation. A review of expatriates’ success rates and of cross-cultural training (CCT) literature is presented. A comparison between theoretic view and practical approach of two German-based multinational companies (MNCs) is drawn. It is determined that, given that cross-cultural training is regarded as very effective throughout extant literature, the MNCs in the case under consideration could improve their expatriates’ cross-cultural preparation.
Book Synopsis Facilitating Expatriate's Cross Cultural Adjustment by : Shahzad Ghafoor
Download or read book Facilitating Expatriate's Cross Cultural Adjustment written by Shahzad Ghafoor and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of increasing global competition and the internationalization of world markets, the assignment of expatriate employees is becoming increasingly essential for the successful worldwide development of many multinational corporations (MNCs). International expatriates are imperative to the survival of global enterprises in the twenty-first century. Expatriates can become an important human resource to international enterprises or multinational operations. With the economic globalization, most Multinational Companies (MNCs) need expatriates to manage the subsidiaries, as expatriates are more familiar with management techniques.Many companies face a high failure rate of expatriates. They return earlier or have a poor job performance. Their failure cost is very huge in term of direct as well as indirect cost. The question arises how companies are responding to the challenge posed by globalization and increased competition to meet world-class global standards if they do not take interest in training for their expatriate's employees.This research is highly recommended for the students of International human resources, International Business.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Cultural Intelligence by : Soon Ang
Download or read book Handbook of Cultural Intelligence written by Soon Ang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural intelligence is defined as an individual's ability to function effectively in situations characterized by cultural diversity. With contributions from eminent scholars worldwide, the "Handbook of Cultural Intelligence" is a 'state-of-the-science' summary of the body of knowledge about cultural intelligence and its relevance for managing diversity both within and across cultures. Because cultural intelligence capabilities can be enhanced through education and experience, this handbook emphasizes individual capabilities - specific characteristics that allow people to function effectively in culturally diverse settings - rather than the approach used by more traditional books of describing and comparing cultures based on national cultural norms, beliefs, habits, and practices.The Handbook covers conceptional and definitional issues, assessment approaches, and application of cultural intelligence in the domains of international and cross-cultural management as well as management of domestic activity. It is an invaluable resource that will stimulate and guide future research on this important topic and its application across a broad range of disciplines, including management, organizational behavior, industrial and organizational psychology, intercultural communication, and more.
