Careers in cross-cultural context

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This study considered migrants career outcomes as the result of their adjustments in terms of culture and career adaptation along with other positive attributes they brought on their arrival as well as developing in their new country. It considered that career is the property of individuals and managing it successfully is the responsibility of individuals themselves. Prior research into migrants issues and careers was used as the basis of this study and a model for analysis was developed using such issues. The resultant model included the wider life of migrants. The implications of the present study were considered, from both migrants perspective and that of New Zealand as the host society. A number of possible practical strategies relevant to migrants, community organisations and policy makers and authorities were suggested. Several potential avenues for future researches were identified and discussed. Thus, it is expected that this study will contribute to better career outcomes of migrants.
