The best  Construction Managers have  acquired their skills  through experience and education.  The best construction manager in the US will find that he has to start learning all over again if he moves to a Africa.  Some are never able to make the paradigm shift to Africa work.  An "experienced" ENR top 100 contractor recently started an East Africa construction job over a million dollars  in the hole.  This contractor  thought, just because he  had a US Government Contract, he would be able to bring all of his equipment and supplies into Africa without paying any customs fees or duty on his  plant & equipment.
