Factors Influencing the Prolongation of Stay Expatriates in Brno

Original language description

Brno, the second largest city in the Czech Republic located in the South Moravian Region, has become one of the most important targets for expatriates. Despite many conceptual uncertainties, expatriates refer to people who are educated and skilled workers, who are selected and prepared for job positions they move to foreign countries for in order to hold those positions for some time and then return back again. The preceding quantitative research, The Great Brno Expat Survey conducted among expatriates in the South Moravian Region, demonstrated an inconsistency between planning their stay rather on a short-term basis and, and the fact that their stay gradually changed into a more permanent one over time. It deals with the important question of what circumstances lead to expatriates prolonging their stay or leaving the city. To answer the question, we applied the qualitative research method of the World Café. The first discussion topic concerned the circumstances of the expatriates’ arrival to the Czech Republic, the second was the reasons for staying or leaving Brno, and the third was the life of expatriates among local inhabitants. The research showed that expatriates mention a number of motivations as the set of factors that led to the prolongation of their stay. The original plans tend to be revised on the basis of experience and views formed during their stay in the city.
