A Study of Perceived Organizational Support, Knowledge Sharing and Managers’ Repatriation Adjustment — Cases of Taiwanese Enterprises / 知覺組織支持、知識分享與派外經理人回任適應研究--以台商派駐海外人員為例

博士 / 國立雲林科技大學 / 企業管理系 / 105 / Internationalization is the main strategic option for enterprises to enhance their international competitiveness. Taiwan has faced a variety of competition and challenges since Taiwan's entry into the International Trade Organization (WTO) on January 1, 2002. Many enterprises have invested overseas and expanded their overseas markets. Enterprises that invest overseas must face the problems of expatriation management, so repatriation has gradually become an important issue of international human resources management (IHRM). This study explores the relationships among these three variables through three dimensions: perceived organizational support (POS), knowledge sharing (KS), and repatriation adjustment (RE), and examines if KS is the mediator between POS and RE. Samples collected by this study were obtained from Taiwanese enterprises investing overseas, including 216 expatriation managers. We collected 200 effective responses, creating a response rate of 93%. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was adopted to verify and validate the research framework of this study and investigate the interdependent relationships among POS, KS, and RE in their home country. Our results show that: (1) Perceptual organizational support has a significant positive impact on knowledge sharing. (2) Perceived organizational support has a significant positive impact on repatriation adjustment. (3) Knowledge sharing has a significant positive impact on repatriation adjustment. (4) Knowledge sharing has a mediating effect on the relationship between perceived organizational support and repatriation adjustment. Our findings provide theoretical explanations and management implications in order to make up for the gap in the prior domestic literature and serve as a reference for HR management of multi-national companies (MNC).
