However, for those in the earthquake affected regions of China’s southwest provinces, the economic aftershocks are still be felt by many.”
Laurel Delaney presents Is Outsourcing Recession Proof? posted at The Global Small Business Blog saying “you must be stretching your influence across the globe.”
John Yunker presents Geolocation in the Wall Street Journal posted at Global by Design saying “I was quoted briefly in an article in the Journal on the benefits of geolocation.

UIltan presents Amo, But Not A Mass posted at Blogos saying “Today, the blog posting laments the loss of the Latin language as a taught subject in schools and other educational establishments. I totally agree. I would love to see it restored. A knowledge of Latin (I studied it in high school) helped me to understand the origin of many words in many languages, encouraged me to read more widely, and to develop my writing ability.”
Patrick O. Courtois presents No Free Lunch in China posted at China Business Stories saying “I tend to receive a recurring misconception about the Chinese labor market from overseas-based clients. This misunderstanding primarily affects overseas-designed provisional staffing budgets as well as the perceived value of quality of China-based recruitment agencies. In short, agencies are perceived to attempt inflating candidate packages for higher fees. While some rogue agencies do, there is a distinctive trend that the cost of Chinese talent is catching up with international benchmarks.”
Multicultural Marketing
John W. Furst presents Tribes – Questions And Answers (Q&A) posted at E-Biz Booster Blog, saying, “Tribes can spread across national, cultural, and geographic areas. Tribes are about leadership! Apply tribal concepts in your marketing. The international tribe following Seth Godin published a Q&A e-book about marketing, about leadership. Be sure to check it out. (The members come from 60 countries on 6 continents) Multicultural enough?”
