Abstract

International assignments are inherently challenging. So what role do companies and HR executives play in helping to facilitate acclimation to new business climates and cultures, and what role does the individual in transition play? It turns out learning from experience and the impact of other people-- rather than traditional human resources tools, processes, or programs-- is more effective in aiding transition into an international assignment and ensuring future success.
