Review identifies four key dimensions affecting expatriates' adjustment in multinational corporations, suggesting new training methods.
A review of empirical studies that directly investigated the overseas adjustment of expatriate managers revealed four dimensions that were related to successful expatriate acculturation: (1) the “self-oriented” dimension; (2) the “others-oriented” dimension; (3) the “perceptual” dimension; and (4) the “cultural-toughness” dimension. The study's implications for expatriate selection and training procedures in multinational corporations are discussed.
