Same ticket, different trip: supporting dual-career couples on global ssignments

摘要

This article describes findings form a Catalyst study that explored why there are so few women with global assignments. The stud reveals several prevailing assumptions in corporate and professional America about women's willingness and ability to relocate. One of the most pervasive is that dual-career issues hinder women's ability to relocate internationally. This assumption is applied universally to women regardless of personal situation and discounts how men are also in dual-career relationships.
