Globalization and the development of multinational organizations
have led to an increase in the number of people spending part of
their lives living and working in foreign countries. While the
contemporary literature has focused on organizational expatriates
sent overseas by their employers, self-initiated expatriation is
becoming an important area of study in its own right. Studies on
self-initiated expatriation explore the labor market positions of
individuals who have relocated under their own initiative. However,
no comprehensive book exists on the dynamics that underlie this
type of mobility. This edited volume offers a holistic picture of
self-initiated expatriation and the groups that pursue it,
emphasizing many aspects for departure including career development
and career capital. It is the first book on the market to explore
the issues pertaining to self-initiated expatriation from a variety
of perspectives with important theoretical and practical
implications. In an era of global war for talent, companies face
difficulties in finding highly skilled employees. Self-initiated
expatriates have the potential to fill this talent gap. National
economies thus have an interest in creating favorable conditions to
attract self-initiated expatriates and provoke their repatriation,
and this book explores the conditions that achieve the return of
employees with skills that are in demand outside of their home
countries.
