Breaking Through Culture Shock

Breaking Through Culture Shock


By Elizabeth Marx
Viewing culture shock as "the experience of foreignness" and as both an occupational hazard and an opportunity, this book goes a long way to explaining why some international managers succeed while nearly 50 percent of their U.S. counterparts fail to adjust to people with different motivations, behaviors, and ways of making decisions.
Outlines three sides of the "culture shock triangle." Offers coping strategies for moving from euphoria to depression to contentment and from stereotyping to culturally effective thinking. Gives practical steps to further a successful international career. 252 pages. Softcover. 2001.
