There is so much that is different about the Western world. As migrants, we need to shift our mindsets and approaches if we are to integrate well. Everything from our sociocultural practices - such as disciplining children - to our geopolitical outlook, needs to be revisited. But even so, we need to maintain a balance - not forgetting our roots, culture and heritage.

Non-immigrants will find useful hints and tips in reading this book given the increasing need for cultural integration in our schools, workplaces, neighbourhoods and communities.


REVIEWS:

Ephraim explores career and cognitive barriers that face migrants in his third book on migration. As a young professional migrant from Africa, the context specific challenges resonated and were eye openers in various instances. Ephraim outlines a practical, vision driven plan to set and reach career goals in the migrant's new home country, while keeping family and cultural values in mind. The ease with which this book reads, considering the complex topic, makes it hard to put down. (Monica Martin, Construction Industry Professional).

This handbook is a natural progression from the previous books that Ephraim has authored in relation to the immigration world. It is a balanced guide that encourages but also challenges those who have emigrated or considering that path in their lives. The book is relevant to all stakeholders involved in the immigration process and is essential reading. (Malcolm Innes, Business Consultant in Corporate Governance & Advocacy)

Adopt Adapt Achieve talks to the challenges that most migrants will face at different stages of their migrant life through Ephraim's experiences. The book guides us through some of the opportunities & constraints migrants face as they navigate the daily normal in family, careers & aging across new geographical frontiers. Migration comes with great stories for the vast majority on the socioeconomic aspects of life with the softer issues often going unnoticed, unplanned and subsequently undervalued for both the individual & the community. This guide will provide fresh depth for healthy inclusive conversations, as the benefits & risks remain largely unscrutinised.
As the narrative gradually changes to be more positive for migrants; this conversation starter will equally assist host communities adapt & adopt to the change of living alongside side new diverse cultures. Our collective push to be more inclusive & diverse which has translated to new socioeconomic achievements for many global businesses will hopefully provide similar benefits for the wider community. Failure to do this better than the current state will be a lost economic opportunity & social value remaining untapped for migrants & non-migrants alike. (Cornelius Itotoh, Mining Industry Professional)
