Towards an Understanding of Expatriate Job Performance: A Conceptual Paper

Abstract

The paper defines and presents ‘Expatriate Job Performance’ in a manner that sheds light on the construct and sets the stage for future research. The findings from the review of the related literature suggest that additional research is needed to empirically validate the concept through systematic investigations and devise a means to measure it with the help of four hypotheses suggested. The paper is original and makes the foundational contribution for a beginning stream of expatriate research.
