Globalization is requiring companies to make important choices about how to deploy international managers. The costs of making the wrong choice are heavy both economically and in the emotional and physical toll it can take on employees and the impact it can have on the overseas branch.Traditionally companies have required managers to accept foreign postings of, perhaps, several years’ duration. Such postings mean upheaval for the manager’s entire family—schools, dual career issues, isolation—and these problems of adapting to di“Confidence comes not from always being right but from not fearing to be wrong.”

Are you afraid of getting things wrong in your newsletter? Of saying the wrong thing in the wrong manner and then, horror of horrors, sending it out in completely the wrong fashion?
May I share something that’s more than a tiny bit embarrassing about myself with you? For many years, I feared that my secret superpower was this: If I made the wrong decision or took the wrong action the world itself would come to a speedy, complete, and painful end.
And I’m hardly exaggerating. And it’s not a fear I’m entirely rid of these days, though I try to keep it from stopping me as often.
Maybe your concern with right and wrong isn’t nearly as far-reaching as mine, but I suspect you still feel it, at least a bit. After all, publishing a newsletter is a lot like public speaking–you’re standing up in front of thousands of people, vulnerable, trying to say something of some importance in a relatable, likeable way.

If you attend networking clubs, service clubs or Chamber of Commerce Meetings to meet people, promote your company and also help the local community while joining with other businesses in a common cause, well I salute you for your efforts. It is great to see like-minded business folks out doing the right thing. For those of you who do not do such things to help their business, perhaps you sell to people who are all outside your area where you live and instead you network online.If you are considering doing a little networking a

My internal instinct says: If you don't have money coming in—don't go splurging. Sounds rudimentary... wouldn't you agree? Well many of us independent business owners and freelancers have experienced what I call going on frugal phase. You live on the cheap. (If you've never been there, I applaude you.)A trip to Blockbusters becomes more attractive than the theater. A vacation at a local bed and breakfast seems more appealing than a romantic stroll through the Champs ?lys?es with your lover. And you order the two-topping pizza s

Don’t bother with worst-case scenarios.
Have you ever gotten this advice? To think of the worst thing that could happen and let yourself realize that you could handle whatever that may be?
I’ve never found this to work, myself. Because whatever I come up with is fraught with drama and intensity.
So, I suggest you don’t both with wondering what the worst thing that could happen is. It might be that every single person on your newsletter list will unsubscribe and you’ll receive so many *spam* complaints that your website host will fine you hundreds of thousands of dollars and…
How is that fun?
Instead of focusing on worst-case scenarios, just let them go. Every time your mind starts to engage you in a match of abounding creativity, simply allow it. It’s not that you’ll handle those *spam* complaints and fines, but rather that you’ll be in jail. It’ll just be true. That’s all.
