A Guide to Pattern Recognition, Problem-Solving, and the Power of Diverse Perspectives

What do growing up across four continents and building predictive models have in common? Both require the ability to see patterns others miss. "Use Your Difference to Make a Difference" explores how being an outsider—whether culturally, professionally, or intellectually—gives you a unique advantage in pattern recognition and problem-solving. Drawing on behavioral science research and personal experience spanning four continents, this book reveals why diverse perspectives aren't just nice to have—they're essential for innovation, effective analysis, and breakthrough thinking.

Originally written about cross-cultural leadership, the book's core principles apply directly to data science, analytics, and any field where seeing what others don't see creates competitive advantage. Being different isn't a disadvantage. It's your edge.

Whether you're navigating new cultures, analyzing complex data, or solving problems from unconventional angles, this book shows you how to turn your unique perspective into your superpower. Read More
