基于对67名在印度的韩国外派经理的问卷调查，本探索性研究调查了影响韩国外派人员在印度工作和生活的机会和挑战的国际任务满意度的因素。研究表明，外派人员（1）在国外的职位/头衔升高，（2）对国际搬迁的不切实际的期望，以及（3）无法管理工作与生活的平衡问题，对他们在印度的国际任务的总体满意度产生了负面影响。结果还显示，同质的韩国侨民在多样化和具有挑战性的印度环境中保持了他们的儒家价值观-这对他们的整体满意度既有积极的影响，也有消极的影响。本研究提供国际人力资源管理的理论与实务意涵。
On the basis of a questionnaire survey of 67 Korean expatriate managers in India, this exploratory study investigates the factors that affect the Korean expatriates’ satisfaction with an international assignment in light of the opportunities and challenges associated with working and living in India. The study showed that the expatriates’ (1) elevated position/title abroad, (2) unrealistic expectations toward international relocation and (3) inability to manage work–life balance issues had a negative influence on their overall satisfaction with an international assignment to India. The results also revealed that the homogeneous Korean expatriates maintained their Confucian values in the diverse and challenging Indian environment – this has both a positive and negative impact on their overall satisfaction. The implications, both theoretical and practical, for international human resource management are provided.
