| Abstract: | The selection of managers for international assignments has frequently been based on an inventory of personal characteristics and technical competence of the manager. Unfortunately, many of these managers have not been successful during their expatriation assignments. To more effectively select overseas managers international human resource managers in MNCs must examine their corporate goals, varying pools of potential candidates, and the personal characteristics of each candidate. This paper develops a planning format which identifies policy, strategic and tactical dimensions which can be used in the selection of managers for international assignments. |
