You have been serving for the past two years as a mid-level employee

You have been serving for the past two years as a mid-level employee in a US-owned pharmaceuticals company in one of its overseas subsidiaries. (For the purposes of this exercise, assume you have been posted to Russia, Turkey, or Japan). You have worked closely on a daily basis with a dozen locally hired employees as part of a broader sales group. You have gradually adjusted to the cultural differences and maintained close and cordial relationships with your colleagues, but this has taken some time and it wasn't easy early on.
You have just received an e-mail from your replacement, as you are departing for another position, and she would like some advice concerning how best to seamlessly and quickly integrate into the team.
Using Hofstede's dimensions, advise her about the specific elements that you perceive will be most effective in her transition and how they come into play during her daily responsibilities at work. Be sure to explain what you would recommend she do. Select at least three dimensions and provide concrete examples of their significance at work and as appropriate to her broader integration to her life in this new location.
Part one is your primary blog (3 thoughtful paragraphs). Create a thread with your last name in the title followed by your topic. For example: "Lauer – cultural tool selection blog." Then, write your post. Do not attach it as a Word doc. Create your post and copy it directly into the box provided by BB. Once you have created your primary thread, you will be able to see your classmates' threads. Until you submit your primary thread, you cannot see your classmates' threads. You will also not be able to go back and modify your primary thread after reading your classmates' threads. Your primary blog is worth up to 30 points.
Content (up to 30 points): Students responded to the question appropriately, demonstrated an understanding of the material, accurately included course vocabulary and terminology, included example(s) to better illustrate concepts and made a compelling argument.
Anything that is not your original work must be appropriately cited in APA format. Although outside research beyond what is required in the prompt is not a requirement of this post, copying and pasting without attribution is never allowed. If you use any outside resources, you must cite them.
