If you still have the H-4 relationship with your spouse, you should be allowed to travel back to the US under H-4 status despite having an approved H-1B petition. Using your H-1B approved petition once another employer is interested in sponsoring you for a new H-1B is another matter. If attempting to do it in the States, you would have to request the change in status from H-4 to H-1B. The question may come up of whether your present H-1B approval is sufficient for you to escape the need for a H-1B cap number if you will be sponsored by a cap subject organization and are not subjecting yourself to the annual quota restriction of H-1B visas. You may have to defend the bona fides of the H-1B filing  including giving the reason that you did not take up employment with the H-1B petitioner.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.

Your conditional green card expired two years after your marriage. You and your then-husband applied for and received the removal of conditions from your green card. Then something happened and you separated and later divorced. Regardless of your divorce though, you now have a valid 10-year green card and the USCIS no longer cares about whether you are married or not. You are free to move on with your life and your 2-week trip is not a problem. But since you are divorced, you will have to wait five years (from the date your first green card was issued) instead of three years, to apply for US citizenship if you wish. All in all, I see no problems or issues with your current situation.

You can certainly change your position in the organization after getting the green card. Recall however that the E1-3 was about being a "multinational executive/manager". Thus, it is best (to avoid issues of fraud) to stay in that classification if you change jobs within the organization. Thus, the responsibilities that you have should continue to be managerial/executive in nature.
