    Summary

    In this chapter, we provide a review of mainstream practice and research on global mobility compensation. We begin by briefly explaining the traditional system used for international compensation, namely, the balance sheet system, and identify its main advantages and weaknesses. We then describe and structure the current landscape of international compensation, highlighting the increasing variety and complexity that characterizes this essential area of global competitive dynamics in human resources. The paper concludes with a discussion of some topics and themes for future research in this area.

    With approximately 50 million people across the globe considered expatriates (persons living and working abroad for a limited time), global mobility is an important issue for individuals, organisations, and national governments, and a major research stream in universities and business schools. Written by a team of internationally renowned scholars from around the world, this volume summarises what is known about the management of global mobility and sets an agenda for future research. It also offers a comprehensive overview of the practical implications for organisations that manage expatriates, and individuals who are currently or aspiring expatriates. Providing an accessible and globally relevant introduction to the subject of expatriation and global mobility, this book will appeal to postgraduate, MBA, and EMBA students studying global mobility or international human resource management.  It will also be of interest to practitioners, such as human resource managers and global mobility managers, who would like to gain a better understanding of the expatriation process.
