Now a days, being successful in the national market for a company is not enough. Due to globalization there have been many international investments and mergers and acquisitions. Because of these activities companies are required to think about new measurements to remain competitive in the global market. The necessity of transferring knowledge and developing international management has increased. In this meaning, expatriation and expatriates have become an essential part of international management and companies' success in the global market. Expatriation has become a common application for multinational companies. Many companies assign their high level employees for overseas jobs within the same organization for a certain time period. As a result of these assignments, expatriates gain international knowledge and upon their return they are expected to utilize their international experience to increase performance and knowledge sharing at their home organizations. However, the positive returns from expatriation cannot be harvested right away, as the repatriation process also involves some difficulties regarding adjustment to the home country after an international experience and this process can be more traumatic than expatriation.
Poor process of expatriation or repatriation has direct impact on employee satisfaction about the process and indirectly it affects the overall performance. Human Resource Management Functions plays a vital role in managing all such processes. Better process and its implementation is the base for International Human Resource management strategies. This study attempts to identify factors that impact expatriation and repatriation process and satisfaction of employee. The research study is majorly based on secondary data. This research paper was presented during GURICT-2015 at SIOM Pune.

Transnational entrepreneurship has been in the spotlight as an emerging field during the last decade. After having been viewed previously from the perspectives of international entrepreneurship and ethnic entrepreneurship, transnational entrepreneurship has recently demarcated its own territory. A transnational entrepreneur has a specific community within which the immigrant is embedded. In general, it represents immigrants engaged in for different purposes. Historically, the common perception is that an entrepreneur commercializes an opportunity within a single institutional setting. However, many global factors, including but not limited to, reduced transportation and communication costs, free trade and diverse lifestyles, are playing a role in enhancing the entrepreneurs' abilities to conduct their businesses across national borders. Transnational entrepreneurs have the ability to generate a greater degree of and create a more efficient business than their counterparts who operate in a single country. Government of every country is taking efforts to develop transnational entrepreneurship to create self employment and increase standard of living. The education system must create new opportunities for students to develop entrepreneurial mindsets, behaviors and skills - abilities that will help them not only to create their own futures, but also to contribute to the economy and to India's standing in the world. The paper will focus on how management education is promoting transnational entrepreneurship by providing recommendations to management institutes about including entrepreneurship in the curricula for each area of academic study, which could in turn contribute to the overall development of individuals and enable them to seize and exploit opportunities. The paper also attempts to present the role of government assistance to management institutes for 'mainstreaming' enterprise and entrepreneurship education, with the objective of bringing Indian entrepreneurs at par with the rest of the world. The findings of this study will help give clarity to institutes and to aspiring entrepreneurs on how to develop the skill-sets and mindset towards enabling environments, stakeholders and entrepreneurial practices that could be synchronized into a framework for their development.Keywords

The purpose of this research paper is to identify ways in order to improvise and customize an induction training program.
The exploratory research design has used for conducting research. A total of 30 new joiners who underwent induction training in the month of June at a leading offshore services provider organization based at India, participated as respondents in the study. The results indicated and that the new joiners were in all satisfied with the induction training program. The new joiners felt that the induction training will help them to do their job effectively. However some areas were identified where minute changes could benefit the value generated by the induction training program.
This research offers insight into whether differences in age and gender can affect the perception formed about the induction training program. It has been found through the medium of this research that, there is no association of gender with perception of new joiners towards work life balance and that there is a relationship between age and perception of attainment of professional goals of new joiners.
Since global firms devote significant sums of time and money training their new employees, the greater understanding of the process results in improved effectiveness of induction training programs.
