‘This valuable research guide draws together the latest research-based understanding of different types of expatriates working in different kinds of settings. It discusses the specifics of many less studied expatriate groups such as government expatriates, religious expatriates and neurodivergent expatriates. The book also discusses expatriate management from a variety of important HRM angles such as talent management, mentoring and wellbeing, and offers fresh insights into the latest developments concerning global work, such as the increase in flexible global work assignments and virtual expatriation. Besides reviewing the latest developments in the field, the book will provide an important guide to future research efforts needed to fully understand the diversity of expatriates and the changing nature of expatriation.’
