The author came to realize an understanding of culture is elemental to success and achievement. By chronicling and attempting to lend some understanding to cultural disparities, the book will offer insights and practical solutions to the cultural challenges that can seem so complex and can make worldwide endeavors so daunting. The lessons learned over thirty-five years of globetrotting are not to be found in college or business schools, yet they can help serve as an indispensable guide to achievement in any endeavor. These lessons are as critical for those selling computers in Europe or Asia, politicians attempting to impact world events, international lawyers trying to guide their clients, peacekeepers operating around the globe, or practically anyone pursuing any global activity. In today's multicultural and racially diverse tapestry across the United States, these simple lessons can also pay big dividends right here. All cultures, whether those of countries, tribes, or organizations, around the world possess a pyramid of values. The descending order of values, from the most cherished to those less so, on those pyramids affects perceptions, actions, logic, legal frameworks, and even danger very differently. It is in the interaction between cultures, when values are not aligned on the respective pyramids, that misunderstandings, harsh judgement, and real problems develop.Against the backdrop of thrity years of globetrotting, the book will demonstrate how lessons in culture, with the intrinsic components of logic, face, communications, accommodation, and law, can be instrumental to understanding, and hence successfully accomplishing undertakings across our often perilous and risky world. Intertwined with these cultural components are lessons in negotiation, problem solving, and the practicalities of international travel. These concepts demonstrate how critical the application of simple rules can be to accomplishment. Lastly, this book hopes to establish how essential developing and trusting intuition can be to assisting decision making and planning--as much of everyday thinking, feeling, and acting operate outside conscious awareness. It will be evident that the application of these lessons can be the difference between sweet success and bitter failure in global pursuits-no matter the endeavor.To appreciate how the lessons were garnered and formed, and how important they have been, the author starts at the beginning of his adventures in "the mud," the "Third World" or "developing nations," as political correctness came to dictate. Beginning in the sands of the Arabian Peninsula in the early 1980s the journey winds from Saudi Arabia across the Middle East, throughout Africa and Asia, into Russia and the new republics formed after the fall of the former Soviet Union. Then, following the history-altering events of September 11, 2001, the author encounters the most extreme and dangerous situations in the ancient lands of Afghanistan and Iraq. Following almost a decade of preoccupation in these insurgency torn regions, a hunch would takes him circling back to India, throughout Africa, and into China chasing new undertakings.The continual encounters with culturally rooted lies, bribes, and peril presented regular blows of varying degrees of anguish and often a bit of humor.

Don't Have a Pity Party... Throw a Faith Fest Finding Hope in God's Word Lorna Lumpris thought her world had ended when she was downsized from her six-figure-salary corporate position. Instead, she found herself embarking on the adventure of her life. During an extended period of unemployment, Lorna came to know and trust God in a way she had never thought possible. Though she had been a faithful churchgoer for years, she had not seriously studied God's Word until she faced a series of overwhelming financial and family setbacks. When she did not have a leg to stand on, she discovered she could rest on the truth of the Bible. Now she wants others to find and grow in the same confidence that God can direct, protect, and provide for you as you trust Him to speak through the pages of scripture. From her years of study and personal, supernatural experiences with God, Lorna explains how you can find hope in the most challenging circumstances, as you look to the Bible.

Global commons are domains that fall outside the direct jurisdiction of sovereign states - the high seas, air, space, and most recently man-made cyberspace - and thus should be usable by anyone. These domains, even if outside the direct responsibility and governance of sovereign entities, are of crucial interest for the contemporary world order. This book elaborates a practice-based approach to the global commons and flows to examine critically the evolving geopolitical strategy and vision of United States. The study starts with the observation that the nature of US power is evolving increasingly towards the recognition that command over the flows of global interdependence is a central dimension of national power. The study then highlights the emerging security and governance of these flows. In this context, the flows and the underlying global critical infrastructure are emerging as objects of high-level strategic importance. The book pays special attention to one of the least recognized but perhaps most fundamental challenges related to the global commons, namely the conceptual and practical challenge of inter-domain relationships-between maritime, air, space, and cyber-flows that bring about not only opportunities but also new vulnerabilities. These complexities cannot be understood through technological means alone but rather the issues need to be clarified by bringing in the human domain of security.

Building three extraordinarily successful businesses while traveling in over 80 countries, author Ron Cruse had more than his share of adventures. Operating worldwide in almost every headline grabbing hot spot of the last twenty years, Cruse developed simple yet profound lessons vital to his accomplishments. Garnering invaluable insights from his dealings with a cast of unique characters - a gentle Sudanese, a Harvard educated Saudi, a Masai guide, an Indonesian shopkeeper, a Russian cleaning lady, an Iraqi driver, and many more - Cruse realized that an understanding of culture is elemental to business. From the unusual array of characters Cruse discovered culture affects perceptions, actions, thinking, communication, legal frameworks, even danger; creating cultural chasms that can make the most ordinary of events turn bizarre. Without the guidance of the astute lessons Cruse formed to overcome the steady, always whacky, barrage of lies, bribes, and perils that are the real challenges of global business, success is virtually impossible to attain. Not only are Cruse's lessons critical for the businesspeople selling their wares in Asia, Africa, or the Middle East, but in today's fickle and sometimes shifty corporate world, these simple lessons can pay big dividends in the United States and Europe as well.
