Pathfinder

The stories of five first-generation pioneers illustrate the challenges faced by new immigrants eager to succeed in American business. They are pathfinders embarking on journeys that are filled with demographic, social, and economical challenges. They show managers moving up to manage managers and learning to deal with senior management challenges. The stories honestly reveal the norms, communication styles, mindsets, and politics of corporate business to help other brave souls newly embarking on the same path. These are not things taught in business schools; they are the life experiences of a generation.
