Change Your Perspective. Communication Pitfalls in International Business

In "Change Your Perspective", I share my experience on how to avoid falling into the traps of cultural stereotypes, how to work together in international teams, as well as how to continuously develop your competencies, broaden your horizons, and discover yourself.

I spent 25 years in HR and Sales teams in an international corporation working in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, under bosses of 14 different nationalities. The pinnacle of my career was a position of HR Director for a Commercial Organisation for 13 countries in Asia. I am a philologist by education, having studied Arabic in Cracow and Bagdad, and having worked in Libya as an interpreter.

Working abroad did not make me understand the world, but it certainly helped me better understand who I am and who I am not. If you are eager to develop your cultural and emotional intelligence, as well as your leadership capabilities, this book is for you.
