András G. Kelemen shares his stories from a long transnational professional career. Kelemen worked in various roles in transnational organisations. He has four children and three grandchildren. When it comes to daily politics, while being a diehart patriot and simultaneously a cosmopolitan, Kelemen says “I am a diehard democrat. However, to confuse anyone” he admits during his professional years as a top manager he had to skip some democratic processes as the pressures of time specific critical decisions dictated. Kelemen, as clearly seen from his satirical story telling in this book, says he would listen eagerly to the opinions of his colleagues if there was enough time, “but this happened rather scarcely”.
“I worked with András for four years in Tokyo. I can honestly say that I enjoyed every moment of our cooperation in the office, and especially the hours of amusement that came after work. I hope that you will similarly enjoy reading his stories which provide an interesting and authentic picture, not only of his special character but also of life in an Eastern-European country both during the years of hard socialism and in the time after the social transition.” – Prof Gábor Rekettye, Former Commercial Counsellor, Head of the Hungarian Trade Mission in Tokyo, Hungary

He describes himself as “a devoted pro-bono activist without compromises, supported by a good musical education, and born bravery”.
