It is not uncommon for expat executives returning home to feel they have been “out of sight, out of mind,” and they need to readjust to their new job environments once their expat experience is over. Moreover, their daily work dynamics are also affected by interactions that are different. The beauty of the glamorous expat packages is gone, and families experience an adjustment in their budgets and their new way of living.
It is also likely that the members of the family may suffer a big culture shock during this period back home. They have all created their new lives and homes abroad and now they have to say goodbye to a life that they have come to like, enjoy, and thrive in.
