Coming Home: The -Relationship of Expatriate Expectations with Repatriation Adjustment and Job Performance

J. Stewart Blackl

The Amos Tuck School of Business Administration, Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire 03755.

Recently, the topic of expatriate cross-cultural adjustment has received increased scholarly attention; however, adjustment after an international assignment (repatriation adjustment) has received relatively little systematic investigation. This study examined the relationship of managers' expectations with repatriation adjustment and job performance. In general, managers whose job and nonwork expectations were met reported higher levels of repatriation adjustment and job performance than those whose expectations were either underor overmet. Both research and practical implications are discussed.

Key Words: repatriation • international assignments • international personnel • expectations • adjustment
