Abstract: Managerial coaching behavior is one of the most significant characteristics of organizational performance and learning to develop in the last 20 years. It is well acknowledged that in international company management, cultural characteristics function as imperceptible barriers. One of the most important abilities for businesses to have in order to get a competitive edge in international commerce is the ability to understand cultural differences. This study intends to explore the influence of Chinese expatriate managerial coaching behavior on local employees Flow at Work, the mediating function of employees’ well-being and Job performance under the boundary condition of expatriate supervisors’ cultural intelligence and adjustment. This study collected the data from 588 Ivorians employees’ and their expatriate Chinese managers working in the Chinese enterprise in Cote d’Ivoire. To test our hypothesis, we employ bootstrapping and regression analysis. The findings show a positive relationship between the well-being and job performance of local employees and the managerial coaching behavior of expatriates. By examining the mediating role of work-flow, this study adds to our understanding of how managerial coaching behavior under expatriate leadership affects the well-being and job performance of local employees. It also offers empirical evidence for the impact of this behavior on local employees' well-being. Future research directions and the implications of these findings for theories and practices are examined.
