1. The End of Isolation -- 2. A Not So Small World -- 3. Driving in Parkways/ Parking in Driveways -- 4. Strangers in a Strange Land -- 5. Working in America Abroad -- 6. Exceptional Voices and Exceptionalism -- 7. Lessons Lived and Lessons Learned -- 8. Engaging Without Enraging -- 9. E Unum Pluribus.

"Internationalization is now a necessity for American organizations. So what about the international workforce? How do non-Americans feel about working for Americans? To answer this question, the author directly surveyed nearly 600 Foreign Service Nationals working for the U.S. State Department. These State Department employees speak to the perceptions of non-Americans working in an overtly American environment. This unprecedented work offers insights that are enlightening, challenging, and occasionally shocking. Researchers, practitioners, students, and those interested in understanding America's place in the world can all consider what happens when those who are "exceptional" become those who are "the other.""--
