Navigating in a new world.
We are transforming from a small world on a big planet to a big world on a small planet. Navigating on transforming grounds calls for conscious mindsets.
My job has always been to think outside the box on behalf of others. However, thinking outside the box was "old-school" already years ago. I've learned that if we really want to reach out today, we need to think outside the cultural and linguistic borders as well. To say the least.
Why? Well, first of all for the sake of common courtesy. Who are we in one corner of the world to say we have the answers if we don't even try to understand the mindsets of others? Secondly, a truly global perspective includes the western and the eastern world, as well as the northern and the southern hemisphere.
