Abstract

Samoinicijativni ekspatrijatizam je relativno nov pojam i može se promatrati u kontekstu modernog razvoja karijere. Samoinicijativni ekspatrijat je pojedinac koji samostalno odlučuje potražiti posao van granica svoje zemlje, a međunarodno iskustvo koje čini dio njegovog osobnog poslovnog plana, nije unaprijed stukturirano i nije unaprijed vremenski ograničeno.

S obzirom na trenutnu situaciju odljeva mozgova iz Hrvatske, postavlja se pitanje postoji li povezanost između rastuće popularnosti programa studentske međunarodne mobilnosti i navedene situacije, što je upravo i tema ovog diplomskog rada. U radu su objašnjene ključne karateristike i glavni motivatori samoinicijativnih ekspatrijata, napravljena je usporedba s tradicionalnim ekspatrijatima te su pobliže opisani trenutno najpopularniji programi studentske mobilnosti.

Što se tiče empirijskog dijela rada, provedeno je istraživanje na 108 ispitanika putem anketnog upitnika čiji je cilj bio ispitati je li sudjelovanje u nekim od programa studentske mobilnosti motivator za samoinicijativni ekspatrijatizam. Ispitanici su sadašnji i bivši studenti koji su za vrijeme svog školovanja bili dijelom nekih od programa razmjene, kao i oni što nisu nikad sudjelovali u istima, te se usporedbom njihovih odgovora došlo do zanimljivih spoznaja.

Abstract (english)

Self-initiated expatriate is a relatively new term and can be viewed in the context of modern career development. Self-initiated expatriate is an individual who on it's own initiative decides to seek employment outside his or her country. International experience that is a part of his or her's business plan is not prestructured and has no predefined time frame.
Given the current situation on the croatian labour market with many young, well-educated people deciding to seek employment outside the croatian border, and yet having an increase in popularity of student exchange programs, the question arises as to whether there is a correlation between those two.
The key characteristics and main motivators of self-initiated expatriates is explained in the paper, as well as their comparison with traditional expatriates. The paper also carries the details of currently most popular international student mobility programs in Croatia.

As for the empirical part of the paper, a survey was conducted on 110 respondents through a questionnaire aimed at examining whether participation in any of the student mobility programs is a motivator for self-initiated expatriation. Respondents are current and former students who have been part of some of the exchange programs throughout their education, as well as those who have never participated in the exchange programs. Their answers were compared and some interesting conclusions were formed.
