If you were lucky, you knew about and were prepared for culture
shock when you moved overseas, But unless you are very lucky, you
probably don't know about and are not prepared for reverse culture
shock. And you should be. Most expats find coming home after an
overseas assignment more difficult than adjusting to a foreign
culture-and very few organizations and companies prepare people for
the experience. Veteran trainer and consultant Craig Storti
sketches the workplace challenges faced by returning businessmen
and women as well as the re-entry issues of spouses, younger
children, and teenagers. He also addresses in detail the special
issues faced by exchange students, international development
volunteers, and military and missionary personnel and their
families. From leave-taking and the honeymoon stage through to
reverse culture shock and eventual readjustment, The Art of Coming
Home lays out the four stages of the re-entry process and details
practical strategies for dealing with the challenges you will face
each step of the way. Whether you're about to relocate abroad, are
already living abroad, about to come home, or already home, this
book walks you through the biggest adjustments, personal and
professional, and in this new edition presents a complete
do-it-yourself repatriation workshop to help you identify and
address your individual readjustment issues.
