Abstract: As mentioned in the preceding chapter, twenty-four alumni remained with their original employers at the beginning of this period (1981). Of the twenty-four, a total of fifteen alumni were assigned to various overseas offices during this period (1981-90). Of these fifteen, the case of one alumnus who stayed in New York from 1977 through 1983 has already been discussed in Chapter 12 [The Japanese Economy 27, no. 4: 23-40]. A second alumnus was transferred out to a nonprofit organization (NPO), which in turn sent him overseas for an assignment in an area entirely different from that in which he had been engaged up to that time. From a third alumnus detailed information was not available. Therefore, in this chapter we will study the overseas experiences of the remaining twelve alumni. They are listed in order of the commencement of their overseas assignments (Table 1).
