Abstract

Women expatriates and women on international assignments are now a permanent feature of the expatriate scene, but that has not always beenthe case. While there is no evidence that women are less successful than men, the prevailing attitude is that expatriation is a ‘tough’ undertaking and that men are implicitly the default option (Baruch et al, 2016). Recent expansions of the gender category and related intersectionality aspects, such as race, add complexity to the topic.
