With the wide reaching media and global diffusion of American music, movies, and television shows, many people THINK they know the US. What is a myth and what is a fact though?⁠
⁠
For example:⁠
⁠
🇺🇸 Myth: Relationships in the U.S. are superficial.⁠
⁠
🇺🇸 Reality: U.S. Americans often develop relationships that are transactional and practical. So, as long as there is a mutual benefit between two parties, a relationship exists. When this mutual interest goes away, the relationship may as well.⁠
⁠
🇺🇸 Tip: Transactional relationships are primarily based on common interests. When Americans ask, “So what do you do?” it is a way of finding out about your interests. They are seeing where there may be commonalities in order to initiate the relationship-building process. The most common answer to this question is a professional one (e.g., “I’m a Managing Director at an investment bank”). However, you can still answer effectively even if you’re not working. For example, “I just relocated from Switzerland and am currently focused on getting settled. I’m looking for part-time consulting opportunities and hope to join a local book club.”⁠

Culture shock is often defined as the expected reaction to the unknown, whereas reverse culture shock is the unexpected reaction to the known when an expat returns “home”.⁠
⁠
Even if you haven’t lived abroad, try to imagine a time when you have had to adjust to another kind of new culture. For example, maybe an organizational culture when starting a new job. The changes may be big and surprising. This is often known as culture shock. Or, the changes could be small and subtle. This is less commonly known as culture surprise. Regardless, change brings uncertainty. And this concept is all too familiar to everyone after the global pandemic we have been experiencing since 2020.⁠
⁠
So, the unexpected CAN and WILL happen. Especially when we intentionally place ourselves in an environment of cultural difference. What skills have you used to manage uncertainty in the past? ⁠

According to master coach @pauletterao, coaching i According to master coach @pauletterao, coaching is "a collaborative relationship between the coach and the client where the focus is to accelerate the positive change desired by the client."⁠
⁠
So how does coaching work? Well, a coach:⁠
⁠
🔑 creates and maintains the necessary conditions for change to occur⁠
⁠
🔑 helps the client gain clarity about values, purpose, and goals by listening carefully, asking questions, and providing candid feedback⁠
⁠
🔑 supports the client in identifying strategies to overcome personal obstacles and establishes accountability⁠
⁠
While there is no ONE key that unlocks all doors, the more keys you have, the more doors that you can unlock. 🔐⁠
