Survey on the Importance of the International Work Experience for Managers and Professionals The Significance of the international work experience for the careers of
managers and professionals is pointed out very often. However, there are many expatriates and repatriates who report problems during and after their international assignment. This issue is analyzed in a joint research project by the universities in Germany and USA (Helmut-Schmidt-University Hamburg, Jacobs University Bremen and James Madison University). In an online survey we question managers and professionals with international work experience.

Objective of the study:
The objective of the sudy is the identification of factors that make the expatriation succesful on the long run for both the expatriate and the corporation. For this purpose, the online survey contains questions on the individual career, career prospects, and the corporation.

Participants:
We focus on managers and professionals currently living and working in a
foreign country or those that returned home. It takes about 15 minutes to complete the survey and each paricipant, if interested, receives individual feedback and executive summary after the online survey will be finished.
 

Anonymity:
Anonymity is completely guaranteed. The data will be deleted after
completion of the study.
 

Questions and remarks:
In case of questions and remarks please see the printed bulletin. The following link leads to our online-questionnaire: http://www.unipark.de/uc/fb_expats/
Since the quality of the study depends on the sample size, we would be grateful if you forward this information to the other expatriate colleagues.

Thank you very much in advance for your support!
