Korea Perspective: January 2015 Release

Korea Perspective
By Donald G. Southerton Publication Date: tentative January 2015


Overview
Korea Perspective is based on daily consultancy interactions in the support of the Korean automotive, golf, land development, Green sustainability technologies and retail sectors. Western overseas teams, as well Korean leadership and teams, have openly shared their challenges and pressing concerns along with the inner workings of their companies in the interest of improving communication. In turn, I have worked to provide a framework, strategy, and solutions.

About the new book
This book builds considerably upon topics shared in my two previous and well-received publications: Korea Facing: Secrets for Success in Korean Global Business and Hyundai Way: Hyundai Speed. In particular, the new book explores more deeply into issues many working for Korean based companies may experience. The target audience and focus is the ever- growing number of Westerners employed by Korean-based companies outside South Korea. This book will provide you with greater awareness into the Korean workplace and mindset.

Likewise, if your firm provides services or products to a South Korean overseas subsidiary or operation, this book will offer tactics to strengthen and maintain the relationship.

Finally, if your company has significant business in Korea, but leadership and headquarters are located in the West, we offer suggestions to key management on how to effectively deal with pressing issues and challenges that surface.

All in all, this book offers a roadmap to avoid the pitfalls, navigate around the roadblocks, and thrive.
