|Let's face it—sometimes it's all too much and you lean back on the plane and wonder why you choose this profession. That's the ideal time to take out a copy of Adventures in Global Consulting , Alan A. Waldman's insightful and often humorous—yes, humorous!—look at some of the challenges faced by an international consultant. Waldman, the founder and head of Waldman Biomedical Consulting, brakes the book down into geographic chapters and shares short stories about arguing with Germans, training kibbutzniks in Israel and explaining quality control to the French. Adventures in Global Consulting is a quick and easy read and one that will have you either laughing while you learn or learning while you're laughing. It all depends on how you look at it.
