Publisher's Synopsis
You're in the military, your company has sent you abroad, or you're self-employed and on assignment in a foreign country. Before you left, you and your family were given critical support in so many areas. You were taught about the culture and customs-everything you needed to know to acclimate to a new world. But now you have been told it is time to come home. Though many employers invest in outbound training, few address the needs of returning expats. But it is this journey that needs to be attended to most of all. You, your partner, and your children have changed tremendously during your time abroad, and odds are that all of you may find it difficult or even impossible to fit back into the old ways of working and living. In Avoiding Burn-up on Re-entry: Mission Critical Briefs for Returning Expats, master trainer Linda Fraser Jacobsen provides a viable landing, as she takes expats through all the stages they may face when coming to grips with being "home" again.
