What’s it like to move abroad and what adjustments do you have to make? I know exactly what it’s like, because I’ve done it myself – I’m not living in my birth culture. Unfortunately, I had no training before I moved to Finland, and I learned the hard way, by making mistakes.
But that’s a slow way to learn. On most international assignments, you have to get things done quickly. You will reduce misunderstandings and fast-track your success with advance knowledge of the effects of moving and how your new host culture does things.
