• Selection of Expatriates: Decision-Making Models Used by Hr Professionals

Expanding into international-level business presents many challenges to an organization, one of which is the difficulty of selecting expatriate employees. The purpose of this study was to explore the decision-making processes used by Human Resources (HR) professionals when selecting expatriates.

A theoretical model of consumer J/DM is first proposed that purports to reconcile emerging attitudinal models of goal-directed behaviors with satisfaction theory in a manner that...
