Customer Reviews

A Helpful Resource

I believe that this book contains very helpful insights and advice on coming home. Several years ago I came home from an overseas assignment with little or no help--it was a nightmare. I wish I'd known then what I know now. This time, I'm planning my overseas return in a few months. Using suggestions in the book along with my own personal experience I expect a much better transition. P.S. I've given a copy to my Human Resources VP in the home office to help her have some insights regarding employees who make this transition.

We Use This as a Tool with Our Global Repatriation Program

As part of our year-long repatriation process, we (a global consulting firm) provide a copy of this book to all of our associates on cross-border assignments. Assignees often don't realize the "culture shock" and problems they and their families will face when returning to their home country. The book is written in a "reader-friendly" format and the feedback we've received from our "expats" has been very positive.
