Abstract

This paper draws from Ajzen’s theory of planned behavior to examine how an expatriate’s past experience affects the individual’s intention regarding future international career. Data was collected about expatriate’s perception of his/her task-based and relationship-based acceptance in the host country, the expatriate’s satisfaction with host country, and his/her intention to consider future expatriate assignments. The results of the regression and their implications for the career of expatriate managers are discussed in this paper.
