Expatriate Coaching
For the expatriate, questions and challenges often arise and develop only after the move to the host country. Although training is a critical first step toward achieving global competency, there needs to be a series of contact points with employees to ensure learning, behavior change and success.Building on IOR’s Intercultural Training Programs, IOR’s coaching services begin while prospective expatriates are still in the home country and continue in the host country. Expatriate Coaching offers ongoing custom-tailored advice and support pertaining to communication, decision making, and problem solving challenges that arise in the expatriates’ professional and personal lives.
Our coaches have decades of experience working with employees from around the world. IOR coaches help the expatriate employee:
- Gain deeper insights into the destination culture's values and their impact on the performance of professional and social functions
- Identify options for culture-appropriate behavior
- Develop personal and professional strategies for achieving greater effectiveness and satisfaction during the assignment
