International Staffing
International Managerial TransfersReasons for staffing with locals
• Most managerial positions in both headquarters and foreign subsidiaries are filled by locals
• Foreign managerial slots are difficult to fill with expatriates because:
– many people are not inclined to move
– legal impediments to using expatriates
• Local managers more useful when operations require local adaptations
• Hard to recruit locals if expatriates hired into most of the better jobs
• Local managers cost less

– acquire understanding of overall corporate system
– people transferred to headquarters learn the headquarters way
Home-country versus third-country nationals• Third-country nationals sometimes might
have more compatible technical and personal adaptive qualifications than do home-country expatriates
