The dissertation examines the expatriate adjustment process experienced by managers who are sent on international assignments to live in the country were they work for extended periods of time. The cultural aspects of the adjustment process are explored examining the implications of cultural differences and the companies' policies aimed to motivate and help their expatriate managers to cope with the stress created by the adjustment process. The literature review touches on the issues of employee motivation with the focus on the content theories. A research questionnaire completed by a group of expatriate managers is analysed using basic descriptive statistics. Conclusions are made about the quality of international assignments management and expatriates' motivation.
