| Abstract: | In the present paper the authors look at a little studied group, Japanese staff expatriated to assignments in the West. The aim of the paper is to examine qualities of their experience and determine whether these are predicted by factors consistent with previous research and conventional wisdom about expatriation. Data analyses extend to exploring the usefulness of a new technique for retrospective reporting of how experience changes over time. Implications for theory and practice are reviewed. The study focused on expatriate staff in the London offices of five Japanese firms in the finance sector. |
