Short description
ESR 1 will examine individuals’ willingness to move internationally for work reasons.
Objective
The objective of this empirical project is to examine the primary reasons and motives for individuals’ willingness
to move internationally for work reasons. Relevant sub-questions are: How do individuals perceive value of international work experience for their career, life style etc.? What are the motivational mechanisms and which factors determine the individual decision-making
process to relocate internationally? How can employers make use of these results to motivate their employees to accept an assignment abroad (assigned expatriates) or to motivate new recruits to move to their country (self-initiated expatriates)?
The project shall be based on empirical data (either qualitative or quantitative) to be collected in the countries participating in GLOMO.
Expected Results
·
Develop a holistic perspective on individual motivation for expatriation, thereby considering both the acceptance of the organizational international
mobility assignments and self-initiated expatriation.
·
Advance knowledge about individual and organizational motives and mechanisms underlying individual willingness to move internationally.
·
Provide organizations with knowledge and starting points for developing relevant policies and practices based on the findings about motivation for
expatriation from an individual and organizational perspectives.
Planned secondment(s)
A secondment of up to four months to one of the GLOMO network partners is planned as part of the position.
