The future belongs to the people

...who are ready to move...out of their comfort zones.

Cross-cultural exposure will matter more and more. How are you planning to add to your learning?

Are you actively increasing the level of your interactions with people who are from other cultures? Can you work in virtual teams? How comfortable are you on the phone and email vis-a-vis face to face.

The world of work is changing and stretching.

Can you move out of your comfort zones to keep up with it?

  1. Very true. Would just like to add that this works both way. Lot of Indian or Chinese who came here for higher studies or during the tech-boom not only act as brand ambassadors of their native land & cultures but also need to soak the local cultural nuances.

    And they are the ones who are enabling the IT/BPO boom by building a strong network and goodwill in host coutries. It is not the job of just folks in front end roles like (BD/Sales) but all of us. A more connected world is good for all of us.
