Download or read book Asia an Expat Adventure written by Timothy Marc Pelletier and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If youre looking to read about adventures, look no further. ASIA: An Expat Adventure will take you on a four-year journey through several countries and cultures. Its a true testament to what its really like to live in another country, what culturalism really is, and how different the world really can be. Tim shoots from the hip in this anthology of all that is wrong (and a few things that are right) about teaching English in the Far East. ASIA: An Expat Adventure is half I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell and half Frommers; its an essential guide for anybody who wants an insiders view on the agony and the ecstasy (mostly the agony) of ESL life. There are plenty endearing qualities about Tims memoirs, not the least of which is his ability to trudge on when others would have bought the next ticket home. As Tim looks back at his beer-soaked escapades through the clarity and wisdom that hindsight provides, we are granted a view of a man who is as resilient as he is ill-fated, and a world that is as perplexing as it is alluring. Brenan G. Alexander, ESL Teacher, Communications Leader, UBC leaving behind not just his country, but his mind, as he slowly deconstructs his old life (quite literally in some cases, given the numerous surgeries he details) and reassembles the parts into a story worth telling. We all have one. This is his. Enjoy it! Joshua W. Davies, MS Education, LAM Institute, Communications Consultant
Download or read book Dragon Suit written by Gábor Holch and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2023-08-24 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worldwide business leaders who try to comprehend China’s unavoidable impact on their livelihoods often ignore the most important voices: those of expatriate managers with years of experience in the country. Based on interviews with China-based corporate executives over five years, Dragon Suit brings to life the country’s swarming cities, recent economic tsunami, unstoppable middle class, endemic pollution, intermittent internet, confusing culture, and endless opportunities. This book is a rare insight into the way global firms select, relocate, manage, motivate, and reward top managers in the world’s most populous market. CEOs, C-suite executives, and senior managers recall their careers since China’s early 2000s reform period until a notable 2014 policy paper declared “the end of a golden age for foreign business in China”, and beyond to the present day. Dragon Suit addresses crucial questions for international business: How did China become a key market for global firms? Why are most foreign managers unprepared for its challenges? Why did the country’s near-million foreigners begin to leave in the mid-2010s, and who will replace them? Most importantly, how can managers, entrepreneurs, experts, and students prepare for an increasingly China-facing future in business?
Download or read book Managing Expatriates written by Yvonne McNulty and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2013-07-10 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expatriation is a big topic, and is getting bigger. Over 200 million people worldwide now live and work in a country other than their country of origin. Tens of billions of dollars are spent annually by organizations that move expatriates around the world. Yet, despite the substantial costs involved, expatriation frequently results in an unsatisfactory return on investment (ROI), with little or no knowledge as to how to improve it. Why is this so? Drawing on more than a decade of expertise, research, and publications in top journals, the authors provide you real solutions to achieve more than a satisfactory ROI from expatriates—with rule number one being: Understand expatriates themselves. This book provides a practical “insider’s” guide that reveals why expatriates seek and accept international assignments; how they feel impacted by new forms of remuneration and other working conditions; how international assignments fit in with their longer-term career aspirations; and what complications arise in terms of their families. Whether you’re a manager or consultant, inside you’ll learn what modern-day global mobility is like (based on the authors’ decade-long study with nearly four hundred expatriates and their managers, as well as over a hundred who were interviewed personally), how it is changing, and why now, more than ever, a hard-nosed ROI approach is necessary.
