International Relocation
by Wendy Coyle & Sue Shortland

A failed overseas assignment can damage a business as well as the employee who has to return home early. Preparing employees for an assignment in a foreign location is of increasing significance as companies globalize. 'International relocation' discusses the role of relocation in business globalization and the issues of bridging cultural differences.

To successfully relocate staff, organizations must understand the process of relocation, the issues involved and the support structures which can be put in place to minimize stress and ensure the effectiveness of transferred staff in their new environment.Using a case study approach, the book covers issues such as dual career families, coping in a hostile environment, the strain of relocation on the family unit, group moves and repatriation. The logistics of establishing a relocation policy and managing the practicalities of moves to and from Europe, North America and Australasia are outlines and provide a ready reference for organizations involved in relocation.
