Evaluations of Performance
The challenging aspect of abroad performance assessments is deciding who
should evaluate the expatriate's work. Having managers and employees in the
host country evaluate the expatriate can make sense, but cultural considerations
might make this process pointless. The host country may treat the expat more
harshly because of cultural differences. It is possible that an Indonesian boss or
employee will give the expat a higher rating in order to keep the peace at work
because harmony is prized more highly than production in other nations, such as
Indonesia. 27 The home-country management may not have a clear indicator of
the expatriate's performance if they grade it because the manager and the
expatriate do not work together on a daily basis. A study by Gregersen, Hite,
and Black found that a balanced group of raters from both the home and host
countries, as well as more regular appraisals, have a favorable correlation with
the accuracy of performance ratings. 28 They also suggest that the adoption of a
standardized form is negatively connected with perceived accuracy. Carrie
Shearer, an international HR consultant, concurs, stating that if the traditional
form is used, it should additionally contain special information for the expatriate
manager, such as the expatriate's ability to adapt and cultural fit. 29 In addition
to choosing who should evaluate the expatriate's performance, the HR specialist
should determine the evaluation criteria. Because the expatriate's employment
will likely be different abroad, the aforementioned criteria might not be helpful
in the appraisal process. The performance evaluation criteria should be settled
upon before the expatriate leaves on assignment. We have already discussed this
part of the training process. Both the business and the employee's personal
development benefit from a thorough awareness of the rating criteria for an
overseas assignment. A performance evaluation also gives the company a great
opportunity to learn how the assignment is progressing and determine whether
the expatriate is getting enough support. The challenging aspect of abroad

Having managers and employees in the host country evaluate the expatriate can
make sense, but cultural considerations might make this process pointless. The
host country may treat the expat more harshly because of cultural differences. It
is possible that an Indonesian boss or employee will give the expat a higher
rating in order to keep the peace at work because harmony is prized more highly
than production in other nations, such as Indonesia. 27 The home-country
management may not have a clear indicator of the expatriate's performance if
they grade it because the manager and the expatriate do not work together on a
daily basis. A study by Gregersen, Hite, and Black found that a balanced group
of raters from both the home and host countries, as well as more regular
appraisals, have a favorable correlation with the accuracy of performance
ratings. 28 They also suggest that the adoption of a standardized form is
negatively connected with perceived accuracy. Carrie Shearer, an international
HR consultant, concurs, stating that if the traditional form is used, it should
additionally contain special information for the expatriate manager, such as the
expatriate's ability to adapt and cultural fit. 29 In addition to choosing who
should evaluate the expatriate's performance, the HR specialist should
determine the evaluation criteria. Because the expatriate's employment will
likely be different abroad, the aforementioned criteria might not be helpful in
the appraisal process. The performance evaluation criteria should be settled

Indonesia. 27 The home-country management may not have a clear indicator of

countries, as well as more regular appraisals, have a favorable correlation with
the accuracy of performance ratings. 28 They also suggest that the adoption of a

is possible that an Indonesian boss or employee will give the expat a higher
rating in order to keep the peace at work because harmony is prized more highly
than production in other nations, such as Indonesia. 27 The home-country
management may not have a clear indicator of the expatriate's performance if
they grade it because the manager and the expatriate do not work together on a

negatively connected with perceived accuracy. Carrie Shearer, an international
HR consultant, concurs, stating that if the traditional form is used, it should
additionally contain special information for the expatriate manager, such as the
expatriate's ability to adapt and cultural fit. 29 In addition to choosing who
should evaluate the expatriate's performance, the HR specialist should
determine the evaluation criteria. Because the expatriate's employment will
likely be different abroad, the aforementioned criteria might not be helpful in
the appraisal process. The performance evaluation criteria should be settled
upon before the expatriate leaves on assignment. We have already discussed this
part of the training process. Both the business and the employee's personal
development benefit from a thorough awareness of the rating criteria for an
overseas assignment. A performance evaluation also gives the company a great
opportunity to learn how the assignment is progressing and determine whether
the expatriate is getting enough support.
