Full Description
Over 120 million people are forcibly displaced across the world. Among them are over 42 million refugees, people compelled to leave both their homes and their home nations. Whilst commonly misconceived as a burden, refugees are more enterprising than the rest of the population, with statistics showing that 13% of refugees entering the US become entrepreneurs, versus just 9% of native-born Americans.
The Refugee Advantage reveals how those who have been forced to start again are reshaping the business landscape around the world - for the better.
What defines a refugee, in spirit and substance? What are the qualities and characteristics of those who have fled their native lands, under threat of death and persecution, to start a new life? What do leaders and investors need to know in order to facilitate better business decisions and increased social sensibility?
Intent on changing perceptions and redirecting misunderstandings, The Refugee Advantage offers a research-based yet personal insight, challenging misconceptions surrounding refugees by showcasing them as the accomplished business owners and community contributors they truly are.
From smart investment to entrepreneurial spirit, Dalton T. Sirmans' guidance empowers business owners, HR professionals and readers alike to make informed decisions around hiring, investing, partnerships and more with increased understanding and awareness.
