Satish Mehta

How to Be an American Satish Mehta

After interviewing over one hundred recent and long-time immigrants, Satish Mehta, who migrated to the U. S. in 1973, writes a light-hearted, slightly satirical playbook, taking you on a journey to assimilate in the American society and become a real American. No matter your wealth, your stage of life, or when you migrated to the U. S., this book will provide the insights to help you blend in faster than you ever thought it was possible. Mehta, who has coached numerous senior executives in brand name companies, inspired and mentored tens of entrepreneurs, is a low profile, humble, and yet one of the most effective business and life strategist. In this book, he leverages his 46 years of life experience in the U. S. and reveals how to integrate-someone who can, not only maintain his/her heritage identity but who can create an advantage from the fear that immobilizes so many.
