This paper proposes a curvilinear relationship between expatriate (guest worker) salesperson performance and actual turnover. Also, the relationship is moderated by expatriate salesperson adjustment. Utilizing a single event-history (or survival) analysis technique, we test the relationships with a sample of 308 expatriate salesperson-manager dyads. Results indicate that the relationship between expatriate salesperson performance and actual turnover is indeed curvilinear and the three dimensions of expatriate adjustment do moderate the curvilinear relationship.
