Global
Dreams by
Richard J Barnet and John Cavanagh “Globalization”
is one of those buzzwords you hear thrown around. But, what does it
really mean? Well, the Rockefeller 'New World Order' comes to mind
in this book as well as the new new age we are entering in manufacturing.
Several world dominating contract manufactures are here and out to
assimilate you. Though, not mentioned, you can read the book and think
about Solectron, Celestica, Sanmina-SCI, Jabil, Flextronics and others to see
where we are going and where we should be. Scary stuff at times, but . .

Following
The Equator
by Mark
Twain “Sept. 5. Closing
in on the equator this noon. A sailor explained to a young girl that the
ship’s speed is poor because we are climbing the bulge towards the
center of the globe; but that when we should once get over, at the
equator, and start down hill, we should fly . .." Sounds logical
to me. But . . . Like many
things in business – let’s think about it for a minute. Does it
really make sense? Globalization is a fact. As Mark tells you about his
lecture tour and travels around the world, he just may
have some unique and interesting thoughts for you to use
in your own worldly business dealings.
