TIBR Summer Issue: Expatriation

(GLENDALE, Ariz.) July 1, 2010—Thunderbird International Business Review (TIBR), Thunderbird School of Global Management's business journal, is pleased to announce the publication of a Special Issue titled Expatriation: traditional criticisms, and international careers.

This issue is guest edited by Chris Brewster, a TIBR Editorial Review Board member based in the UK and a well-known expert on expatriation. Recent studies on international assignments not only provide explanations as to why companies use international assignees but also explain when international assignees are more likely to be deployed.

Discussed in this issue are the four main determinants or situational factors identified in the decision to deploy employees to international assignments:

  • The level of international expansion
  • Cultural and institutional distance
  • The required capabilities
  • The units’ interdependence

“Thunderbird International Business Review is well underway to becoming the most trusted source of innovative and useful thought leadership for global business leaders,” said Mary Teagarden, Ph.D., professor of global strategy and editor of TIBR. “We are proving to be the intellectual sandbox for thought leaders in the business world.” For more information about TIBR or about this issue, contact Dr. Mary Teagarden at: mary.teagarden@thunderbird.edu.
