Navigate Together

International assignments affect the entire family. Concerns about the family’s ability to adjust to a new location continue to be a major factor for expat employees and employers. Effective, problem-solving solutions that go beyond logistics are needed in order for a family to transition successfully. Relocating and intercultural living requires challenging discussions on identity, communication, parenting, and adjustment to a new work environment.

Transition brings so many questions and so many unknowns. By participating in a Navigate Together seminar, you are helping to prepare your family, school or organization for success.
