Die langfristigen Auswirkungen internationaler Einsätze von Führungskräften auf deren Karrieren sind bislang kaum empirisch untersucht worden und die wenigen vorliegenden Ergebnisse sind widersprüchlich. Ziel dieser Studie ist deshalb die empirische Untersuchung der Auswirkungen internationaler Erfahrungen auf den Karriereerfolg von Führungskräften anhand eines Vergleichs von Führungskräften mit und ohne internationale Erfahrungen.
Es zeigt sich, dass internationale Erfahrungen zu einem höheren subjektiven Karriereerfolg (gemessen über die Karrierezufriedenheit) und auch zu einem höheren objektiven Karriereerfolg (gemessen über Einkommen, Anzahl unterstellter Mitarbeiter und Hierarchieebene) führen. Weiterhin kann ein positiver Einfluss bestimmter Funktionsbereiche und der Bedeutung der Auslandsgesellschaft auf den Karriereerfolg durch internationale Tätigkeiten gezeigt werden.
