If Taiwan enterprises wish to expand their production bases overseas swiftly in order to seize market advantage, one of the problems encountered is how to select expatriate staff. For today¡¦s enterprises, the difficulties include: the global demand for expatriates; their profile characteristics (independent variable);the skill and knowledge of the assignees; whether to recruit from outside or inside the company; how to identify potential expatriate candidates, the connection between talent and work performance(dependent variable); and finally the relevance of organizational socialization(independent variable).
My study is the result of a survey questionnaire that explores expatriates¡¦ individual characteristics and the relevance between organizational socialization and their work performance. I really believe my study will contribute to the body of theory regarding human resource management and prove helpful to enterprises active on the international stage.
The results of my study indicate that:
1.A personality trait of conscientiousness has a positive effect on a Taiwanese¡¦ expatriate¡¦s work performance.
2.A personality of openness to experience has a positive effect on a Taiwanese¡¦ expatriate¡¦s task performance.
3.The socialization of Organizational Goals and Values dimension has a positive effect on Taiwanese¡¦ expatriate¡¦s work performance.
4.The socialization of Performance Proficiency dimension has a positive effect on Taiwanese expatriate¡¦s task performance.
5.The socialization of People dimension has a positive effect on Taiwanese¡¦ expatriate¡¦s contextual performance.
6.The socialization of People¡BOrganizational Goals and Values¡BPerformance Proficiency dimension have a partial intermediary effect on a Taiwanese expatriate¡¦s conscientiousness and their task performance.
7.The socialization of People¡BOrganizational Goals and Values have a partial intermediary effect on a Taiwanese expatriate¡¦s conscientiousness and their contextual performance .
