Abstract

One of the consequences of globalization has been the internationalization of organizations, which often, due to the lack of local human resources, use third country nationals. In this context, where expatriation has become central to the competitiveness of organizations, poor performance of expatriates compromises the success and competitive capacity of these organizations. As several authors (Dowling, Festing, Engle, 2017, Waxin and Panaccio, 2005) demonstrate, cultural training in promoting the adjustment of these expatriates to a new culture enhances their performance and consequently their organizations.
