There are many cultural dimensions that firms should always consider and implement in their expatriate training programs. Insufficient cultural training can lead to business disasters for the multinational and the expatriate. Appropriate cultural training for expatriates can bring limitless possibilities. In this paper, expatriate cultural awareness training for foreign assignments in Japan will be examined before embarking on the international assignment, and therefore having a better chance at success.
