Karen is Ford Motor Company’s Vice President of Communications for Asia Pacific. In this role, she is responsible for internal and external communications in the more than 20 markets of Ford’s Asia Pacific operation. I had a blast interviewing Karen and capturing her insights on how to operate successfully as an expat executive in China. In this episode she also covers everything from why she said 'no' to China (...twice!) and what helped her she said 'yes' in the end; how she balances career and family life; and why her family is thriving. This interview is simply not to be missed!
