The Courage to Go Global:
by Douglas Kruger CSP
We often think of becoming known nationally, but rarely consider the possibility of going global with our name, brand and business. It isn't harder. It's just a different kind of thinking.
I've spent the last few days speaking in Taipei, and today I'm writing my newsletter on the 15'th floor of a hotel in Singapore. It's lead me to thinking about just how artificial the notion of national borders really is.
My challenge to you this week is this: Can you think of 5 specific things you could do, 5 actions you might carry out. that could see you or your business operating in another country? Even just as a once-off event, in order to get a taste for it?
Thinking regionally is obvious. Thinking globally is the reserve of experts. What could you do today that might see you operating oversees tomorrow? Think bigger than the rest, and you can become the greatest in your game.
