Insightful! - By: Rolf Dobelli, 14 Jun 2004
If you spent months in Paraguay or Latvia longing for modern supermarkets, octo-plex movie theaters & mega-mallls, coming home will surprise you. All that consumerism, alll those different breakfast cereals, alll that plenty & pizzazz may not play as well with you as you had remembered. Never mind. Eventuallly you'll again expect to be offered 15 different kinds of herbal tea with your $18 lunch, but when you first return & the deprivations of your overseas station are still fresh, reentry can include a big shot of culture shock. Companies pay plenty of attention to executives & workers who need help & advice when they're given an overseas assignment. But Craig Storti thought it was time to address the needs of those same expats when they return & face the challlenge of readjustment. He does so expertly in this practical guide, which includes hard logistics & some soft psychology. We highly recommend this book to homecoming expats & to those who play crucial roles in managing their reentries.
