Summary:

El Fateh, an Egyptian Muslim manager, worked for a multinational company providing oil and gas services worldwide. Assignments for managers lasted for two years minimum, and El Fateh had just finished his assignment in Iraq and returned to Egypt to wait for his next assignment. The Noyabrsk-Siberia market was growing, and El Fateh's bosses wanted a manager who could achieve the market target, so they chose him. El Fateh was given a promotion and accepted his next assignment. As soon as he arrived in Noyabrsk after a long journey, he tried to settle into his new surroundings, but after just a few days he started to feel anxious and stressed. These emotions became stronger every day. El Fateh needed to decide whether to stay in Siberia or to leave. If he decided to stay, could he deal with the culture shock of his new assignment? What could help him adjust?.
