dc.description.abstractThis research investigated how self-initiated academic expatriates managed their work-life balance while in a foreign country. As many people are now self-initiating their career movement from one country to another, there is a need to understand how the self-initiated academic expatriates are managing the balance between work lives and personal lives. The research discussed and made use of a narrative and story-telling method in understanding the experiences of self-initiated academic expatriates. In order to generate knowledge specific to the local African context as most studies were conducted outside of Africa, narrative and storytelling method was seen as most suitable. A total of 25 participants were interviewed using semi-structured interviews.
