From pre-departure to reentry, 52 Activities for Successful International Relocation will help you to make the most of your experience abroad. A valuable resource for those relocating abroad as well as for their managers, trainers and coaches.
A must-read book for anyone who wants to enjoy, and be effective, in a new culture.
International relocation is tricky, regardless of where you're coming from or where you're going to. I wish I had this resource when I was younger!
This book, much more than a collection of activities, provides a powerful road map. Many of the activites are easily adaptable for multiple contexts, and they cover the entire transition life-cycle. If you work with people relocating internationally, or are relocating internationally yourself, this book is for you.
