is Globalization... good or bad?
How many of you work cross culture, cross borders, cross timezone, cross leg? you are actually working in a globalization society... Sometime work global is a good experience but also we need to give away some of our precious rest time in supporting the globalization society. Do you agree with me?
Recently, i have the opportunities to work with people from Middle East and Europe. My previous job i worked with Ugandan, American, Chinese, Costa Rican etc... Hehehe... i would be able to add on two more countries / culture i worked with in my resume.
Anyway, working with the Middle East is kind of different from working with American, Chinese. They are more into setting up rapport and relationship before getting into business. Hmmm... this is what i felt after working with them for three full weeks. Things might not be done if we don't do another step to setup the relationship... hey i mean working relationship not the love relationship... :p So communication played a very important role here.
Anyway, since some of you have experience working with people from other part of the world... Please do share with us what do you think... is Globalization workforce good for bad?

It's alwiz interesting to be able to experience different approaches to work. Dealing with the same type of people can be strenuously boring. I loved dealing with those Shanghainese lasses. :)
