Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Forty years. Five countries. Countless lessons.In 1983, a young Lebanese hotelier boarded a plane to Nigeria with little more than ambition and curiosity. He didn't know it yet, but Africa would become his home for the next four decades - and the stage for a remarkable career.From managing iconic hotels and launching global restaurant brands to surviving military coups, corruption, and cultural clashes, In & Out of Africa is the candid story of a life spent building businesses in one of the world's most unpredictable environments.With honesty and humility, Antoine shares: - What it takes to succeed as a foreigner in Africa.- Lessons in leadership, resilience, and cultural sensitivity.- Stories of triumph and failure in hotels, restaurants, and beyond.- Personal sacrifices - the family moments missed, the risks endured, and the resilience gained.Part memoir, part leadership guide, this book is a rare window into the realities of doing business in Africa. It will inspire entrepreneurs, leaders, and anyone curious about what it means to adapt, survive, and thrive against the odds."Adaptation was not just a business strategy. It was a way of life."
