Abstract

Introduction Expatriate managers are crucial members of all major multinational corporations (MNCs). And they are very expensive. To send a manager abroad can typically cost three times what it would cost to keep him or her at home. The expatriate managers' success is vital to their corporation, and to the country in which they work. Their failure, or their underperformance, can be ruinous.
