With the rapid trend of Globalization, the competitive advantage of MNEs comes from choosing appropriate expatriated employees. Employees who have excellent abil- ity of systematical management and is able to work independently, maturely and re- sourcefully to maintain and operate business overseas is the key to success. However, a lot of MNEs don’t give enough training, including economy, national society, politics, law and cultures for their expatriated employees and lead to the mission failure. Thus, it is clear that the expatriated employees who are highly adaptable to the environment is an important influence for business overseas.
There are two of the research purposes: 1. The relationships between expatriate mangers of development and working motivation using general qualification, knowledge of business, working value and benefit to raise working motivation of expat- riate, 2. The impact of family factors for expatriate managers in development and working motivation. The expatriates may be emotionally unstable due to the cultures dif-ference. If expatriate employees could receive the support from family that make them feel satisfied, safe and trust, it would be increase working aspiration. Yet the paper found that the impact of family factors on the ability of adaptable to the en-vironment in expatriate mangers of development and working motivation is not statistically significant.
The researcher hopes this study not only can realize the re-lationships between family factors and working motivation of expatriates, but also provide effective suggestions in the future.
