Global Connections

Up until not so long ago, my experience of 'globalisation' was only restricted to the customary visits to McDonalds/Pizza Hut and consumption of fizzy cola drinks.Maybe a few friends working in BPOs here and there.

Had someone asked me 4 months back - " RP what do you think about globalisation?" - I would have given some pre-formatted MBA gyaan on foreign companies coming to India,setting up factories , selling their products ...all the normal MBA blah..the 'world-view' of things - as people call it.

But if someone asks me that question today, I will probably tell them how it feels to work together with people from different countries who share the same office workspace with you.How even though people come from drastically different cultures - they work on the same platform towards common goals. How world level ideas are translated into effective local action.

Its quite an intriguing , fascinating ,though novel and surely a 'global' experience.
