The expat lifecycle
International assignments don’t begin and end at airports. Instead, they begin with preparation and end with returning home, cycling through five distinct phases along the way.
Of course, international assignments often include air travel, but the turbulence doesn’t only happen 36,000 feet up. Turbulent situations on the ground can lead to assignment failure — a result that comes with steep financial and emotional costs.
Understanding the expat lifecycle is an important first step in assignment success.
