Individual Clients

Do you recognize yourself or someone close to you in any of the scenarios below?

• My company is sending me to Japan. I’ve had a little bit of training for that, but my family hasn’t. How can I make sure that this move is not traumatic to any of us, and that we make the most out of our time out there?
• I’ve just come back from an overseas assignment and I feel like I don’t recognise the company anymore. No one seems to be interested in me, I don’t get any challenging assignments. I feel like I’m stuck in a dead end.
• I head a group of researchers and marketers located across three continents, five different time zones, speaking seven languages. How can I get them to think and behave like a cohesive team and make sure that our cultural differences don’t interfere with the design and timely delivery of our project?
• I was a very successful general manager of a small family firm, then I was headhunted by this big multinational. This should be a step up in my career, but I feel like a nobody, completely lost in this sea of people and conflicting interests. There seems to be a big gap between the official organisational culture and the way things are really done round here.
