HUMAN RESOURCES The market has recognized the strategic function of that HR plays for the human assets of an enterprise. The HR professionals in an organisation are the disseminating agents for Strategic People Management, and they are asked to create complex solutions for corporate conflict, normally originating from interpersonal relationships. Our view is that the HR's responsibility shouldn't be diminished by the loss of focus generated by other minor activities, such as the management of the adaptation of an expatriate to his/her new environment. Please allow us to offer your HR department the support in managing the expatriates' requirements outside of normal business requirements. Our assistance leads to efficient transition to the new expat role, tranquility for the hosting company and a higher level of performance by the expats in your firm. As shown in the box above, the new routine imposed upon the expatriate and his/her family involves a high level of stress. He/she also has to adapt to new habits, rules, schedules and a new culture. This rhythm affects directly the emotions of all involved, as well as their state of mind. For the expatriate and his/her family, the comfort of a smooth adaptation can serve as an incentive for demonstrating all his/her potential. For the company and the department, focusing the improvement of interpersonal relations among its associates, good management of expat transition can also become a strategic advantage.
