摘要：
Purpose - This article aims to outline the theoretical perspectives of international training and development and examine how theoretical frameworks have been implemented by practitioners. Design/methodology/approach - Literature review. Findings - There appears to be a considerable gap between academic theories and multinational enterprises' (MNEs') practices. MNEs pay little attention to international training and management development. Ineffective international training and management development have a considerably adverse impact on MNEs. Practical implications - In order to succeed in a globally competitive environment MNEs need to effectively train expatriates and their spouses, host-country nationals (HCNs) and third-country nationals (TCNs), and develop and nurture a truly global management team. Originality/value - This paper systematically reviews the existing literature and reveals a considerable gap between academic theories and MNEs' practices.
