Acknowledgements
As this book developed from research which I earned out for the
completion of a PhD thesis, I extend my heartfelt thanks to my PhD
research supervisor and friend, Dr James S. Walsh, Department of
Management and Marketing, University College, Cork. Jim provided
superb mentoring, encouragement, support, and networking opportunities
during our many projects together. This book is a result of his 'Go for it!'
advice.
I am very grateful to the fifty managers who contributed a rich source of
research data for this study, by giving their time to be interviewed and
sharing their experiences of their international career moves in an
enjoyable, humorous, interesting, and forthright manner.
Special thanks to the best female manager I know, my mother, Joan
Linehan, who does her best to manage me! Thanks for your support,
friendship, and for always spoiling me. Thanks also to my uncle, Fr
Michael Kelleher, MSC, for his continuing interest in my everyday
concerns.
Sincere thanks to my best female friend, Frances O'Gorman, an
expatriate trailing spouse, for your continued interest in all my ventures
and 'for always being there'. Perhaps, I will take your advice and publish
my next book on coffee shops!
Finally, and especially, my love and thanks to my husband and best
friend, John Mullins, for your love, patience, and support always, and for
your 'high-tech' expertise and copy-editing in preparing this text.
