Abstract
The proliferation of global crises has sparked MNCs’ interest in developing global managerial resilience to withstand economic, health, and climate crises. While resilient employees are more adept at recovering from unexpected or disruptive events, guidelines on how to develop global managerial resilience remain obscure. Drawing from practitioner and academic sources, we speak to international human resource and mobility leaders in MNCs offering recommendations on how to anticipate and manage disruptive events across individual, family, organizational, and exogenous layers across the expatriation experience. Doing so nurtures a pipeline of globally mobile talent able to thrive in complex international work environments.
