Meet the Author:
Cynthia Dearin
My passion is to inspire, equip and empower CEOs and founders to scale internationally so that they can amplify their impact in the world. This book is a key part of that project.
Since 1998 I’ve lived and worked around the world – in France, the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Iraq, Jordan, Qatar and Indonesia – and with companies going global – to the United States, United Kingdom, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, China, Hong Kong, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and New Zealand, to name a few.
Here’s what I’ve noticed in more than 20 years of doing this work: the opportunities for companies to scale what they do to a global audience are enormous, but most executives have no idea where to start. This lack of know-how stops them from getting started, or from seeing their business reach its full potential on the international stage.
In my new book, I set out the case for why there has never been a better time to ‘go global’. I also spell out my deeply held belief that the opportunity to scale internationally is available to every business owner with a global vision… if they go about it the right way.
