Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, Tongji University, language: English, abstract: Female expatriation is a studied but still quite undertapped question for academics to explore. If expatriation in general has generated a lot of literature with various approaches, female expatriation still revolves around one traditional theme. Based on the realisation that the number of female expatriates is quite lower than the one of their male counterparts, academics focused on analysing the barriers that would prevent more women to initiate expatriation. Many studies then explored the potential solutions to identify and overcome successfully such obstacles. This type of approach underlines the dynamics and influences prior to departure.

This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book excerpt: Globalization and the development of multinational organizations have led to an increase in the number of people spending part of their lives living and working in foreign countries. While the contemporary literature has focused on organizational expatriates sent overseas by their employers, self-initiated expatriation is becoming an important area of study in its own right. This edited volume offers a holistic picture of self-initiated expatriation and the groups that pursue it, emphasizing many reasons for departure including career development and career capital.

Download or read book Self-Initiated Expatriates in Context written by Maike Andresen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume builds on the previously published Self-Initiated Expatriation: Individual, Organizational, and National Perspectives, which served to give in-depth insights into the concept and the processes of self-initiated expatriation and presented different groups undertaking self-initiated foreign career moves. While more than a hundred articles on self-initiated expatriation (SIE) have been published in the meanwhile, an examination of the research questions and samples of SIEs in published SIE research shows that the role of context and its impact on SIEs’ career-related decisions and behaviors has not been explored sufficiently. This raises the question in how far existing research results are comparable. The aim of this follow-up volume is to deepen the understanding of SIEs’ careers, focusing on the contextual influences of space, time, and institutions on the heterogeneous SIE population. More specifically, the editors aim to shed light on spatial conditions in terms of the home and host country conditions on the self-initiated expatriation experience and examine developments over time in terms of temporality of conditions and SIEs’ life-course. Moreover, the influence of the institutional context in terms of occupational, organisational, and societal specificities will be analysed. All chapters are based on strong theoretical foundations that serve to conceptualise "context" and are written by both established and emerging global academics and researchers. Self-Initiated Expatriates in Context contributes to conceptual clarity in the burgeoning field of SIE research by drawing attention to the importance of exploring context and, thus, boundary conditions to careers. It offers specific guidance for an improvement of future SIE-related research in order to enhance the validity of future empirical studies as well as for an improvement of managerial practice. It will be of interest to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students in the fields of international business, human resource management, organisational studies, and strategic management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worldly Women shows any woman who has ever considered working abroad how to expatriate successfully and achieve excellence. Learn from those who have seen it, done it, and loved it! At this crucial period, when our workforce is becoming more global, many nations around the world face an imminent workforce shortage, and there is an ever greater demand for more women in leadership roles, Worldly Women demonstrates that expatriate women are the ultimate solution. However, the number of women who fill these roles remains curiously modest due to barriers and complexities that only female expatriates face. This book is based on interviews with 62 Women in Senior-level Expatriate Roles (WiSER) from all corners of the globe who shared their own strategies to overcome these challenges, and succeed, when working abroad. Expatriate experience is no longer a luxury, but a must have--and an experience that you can have. Notably, Worldly Women offers ground breaking information about global leadership behavior that is shared among female expatriate leaders. Developing and reinforcing these behaviors in your professional (and personal) life will give you an edge to success in your expatriate assignment by: Achieving peak performance, Accelerating assimilation into your new environment, Facilitating a smoother transition. Combining many tools and exercises with the expert advice of WiSER, Worldly Women serves as a personal coach to any woman interested in an expatriate assignment. Join the modern day female explorer on a journey to an enriching professional life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working in the field of expatriate compensation is extremely complex. Designing and administering appropriate pay levels and rewards for a globally mobile workforce present multi-faceted difficulties and challenges for all organisations and international consultants. Not only must we deal with the technical exercise of calculating and equating quality-of-life standards for mobile employees, but we must also address the psychological issues of transferring employees from one culture to another sometimes vastly different one. There is a lot at stake here: from an organisational productivity and cost perspective all the way through to employee performance and motivation. Without question, successfully addressing and resolving all of the quantitative and qualitative issues and concerns with mobility are what separates premier global human resources professionals from the average players.Dr Bussin's latest book, Expatriate Compensation, is an aggregation of his extensive experiences working in the field. He and his cadre of expert authors comprehensively cover every aspect of dealing successfully with international assignments and the mobile employee: from the reasons to go global to setting appropriate market-based pay rates, tax implications, recognising and rewarding performance and dealing with employee motivational issues. Moreover, Dr Bussin has the gift of taking this very complex subject matter and distilling it so that it can be easily understood and absorbed. Indeed, all of the information in the book is presented in a practical, straightforward,and real-world manner.The contents include: Expatriate assignment approaches Fringe benefits Career management of expatriates Job pricing Expatriate reward models Cost-of-living data, expatulator and calculations Taxation and the expatriate Performance management How to retain Your expatriates Trendsetting solutions in an increasingly mobile world Repatriation and reintegration Expatriate management systems Critical success factorsDr Bussin is the chairperson of 21st Century Pay Solutions, a board member, Remuneration Committee chair, and audit committee member of several large organisations.

Download or read book An Exploration of the Perceived Effect of an Expatriate Assignment on the Career Development of Skilled South Africans written by Hester Helena Jooste and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Career management gains new meaning in the context of employability demands in a global world economy. In this context, increased mobility, a dynamic work environment, and an enhanced level of career support from employers are seen as a fundamental aspects of an expatriate's career. This study presents the results of a qualitative research approach that addressed the general question as to how expatriates perceive the effect of their international assignments on their career development. The study followed a descriptive and qualitative research design, using purposive sampling and unstructured interviews to obtain the data. Eighteen participants were identified in a South African-based company operating in Zambia. The study found that expatriates believed that their experience will have a positive effect on their future careers. Some limitations of the study can be said to be reporter bias, the cross-sectional design and self-report interviews which made it impossible for the study to predict whether the expatriates' perceptions would translate into actual benefits in their future career. The positive relationship between expatriate assignments and career development therefore needs to be proved by means of longitudinal empirical research. ©2008, University of Pretoria.
