A expatriação pode ocorrer para diversos fins, no entanto, nesta dissertação iremos focar a expatriação para transferir conhecimento.
Com a crescente globalização, as empresas tendem a expandir o seu mercado para outros países e, desta forma torna-se imperativo expatriar colaboradores para transmitirem conhecimento, os valores e missão da empresa e, em muitos casos para controlo das filiais. Muitas organizações jé se encontram no mundo da expatriação há diversos anos e, por isso, têm sentido necessidade de adaptar a estratégia. Nesta dissertação iremos compreender quais os motivos que levaram as empresas a alterarem a estratégia e que alterações foram efetuadas.

Ainda que o expatriado tenha como missão transferir conhecimento, é inevitavél que o mesmo adquira conhecimentos sobre a cultura local, sobre o método atual de trabalho dos colegas, ocorrem partilhas de conhecimento que, correspondem a uma mais-valia, acrescentam valor à organização, beneficiando tanto a organização como os colaboradores.
This dissertation aims to understand the organizational reasons for expatriation, more specifically how knowledge flows in an expatriation and the strategies used by human resources to ensure that knowledge is effectively transmitted. Expatriation can occur for various purposes, however, in this dissertation we will focus on expatriation for knowledge transfer. With increasing globalization, companies tend to expand their market to other countries, and thus it becomes imperative to expatriate employees to transmit knowledge, the company's values and mission, and in many cases to control subsidiaries. Many organizations have been in the world of expatriation for several years and, therefore, have felt the need to adapt their strategy. In this dissertation, we will understand the reasons that led companies to change their strategy and what changes were made. In the study carried out in this dissertation, it was possible to verify that all the organizations under study expatriated to transfer knowledge. It was also understood that most also expatriate to acquire knowledge. In a mission, it is inherent that the expatriate acquires knowledge of the local culture. Even if the expatriate's mission is to transfer knowledge, it is inevitable that they will acquire knowledge about the local culture and the current working methods of their colleagues. Knowledge sharing occurs, which corresponds to added value, benefiting both the organization and its employees.
