Jack Aschkenazi
BSC, MBA, PH.D.

An update as of April 2008

I am a former Israeli expatriate manager with sixteen years of foreign assignments behind me. When I first accepted to move to Copenhagen, I had no idea what that would mean. I then learned that it meant meeting with an extremely sophisticated and proud old civilization. My family and I fell in love with the country of Hans Christian Andersen. After the first four years assignment, we returned for three more years, and then spent a year in the land of Van Gogh (Holland). My last assignment was in the USA, where we have been for more than fourteen years. My wife says that we should have started our lives here.

We have been in Europe and in the States, in the old and the new continent. Our eyes, our ears, our brains, have absorbed several cultures. What has come out of it?
ACADEMICS

The subject of my dissertation is Israeli expatriate managers, an empirical study in knowledge transfer and retention.
