INTERNATIONAL IS OUR VOCATION
The world is diverse, and interconnected in its ethnicities, geo-politics, geo-economics, innovation mechanisms, and wealth dis-tribution models. As well as being diverse in its resources, beliefsand ideologies. The 20th century established world centers of gra-vity, in terms of politics, business, finance, and political influenceare tilting.
Emerging economies have surpassed the point of ascension, theyare now on their way of shaping the new world order. The G8 isno longer relevant, for the G20 has come into force. This is theworld we live in and it is our duty to make it successful, by makingsocially responsible business and management decisions.
This is the reason why we see interactions between nations,ethnicities, cultures, systems, models, ideologies, as a gift forthere are a wealth of opportunities to leverage from.
