Overview: From the Phoenicians to the East India Company to today's integrated, multinational corporations, sending an employee to work in another country (a 'global assignment' in HR terms) has carried considerable costs while opening the potential for yet greater financial returns for the employer.

Perceived costs are easier to identify and therefore receive the most critical attention.
