Title: International itinerants and traditional expatriates : different breed or different circumstance?
Author/Artist: Shaydulova, Angelique
Banai, Moshe
Date: 2007-10
Abstract/Description: This exploratory study extends the concept of boundaryless careers toward international career management. It focuses on a new breed of expatriate managers who are becoming more prevalent in multinational corporations—the international itinerant. A group of 52 traditional expatriate managers is compared with a group of 86 international itinerants and, contrary to previous propositions no differences have been found in the levels of organizational commitment, locus of control, and instrumentality of the two groups. Explanations of the findings and propositions for future research are provided.
