1st Blog: Un extremeño de Aventura

It`s a blog written in spanish, I`m sure that is not in the rules, but it caught my attention.

Some of you may think, ¿what conection a girl, colombian, 26, studying International Bussines may have with a Boy, in his 20`s that lives in Europe and studies Computer Engineering?

Well by reading most of his daily and common, even boring entries, I got a realization of my own live, my worries, my interest. We are not so different, we maybe almost the same, but geographically apart. But what thas has to do with this subject, here I go... The way people is thinking its tending to be generalized in the past years, perfectly girl-boy raised in different cultures, are ending in the same path of scholling, social intercourse, and even experiences. So in that order, I got thinking, that maybe our responses in the organizational area may be no different also, that our backgrounds even as influential as they used to be, are losing importance as we are living in a globalized society, where boundaries tend to be political, but the limitations in culture are dissapearing.

Theory says otherwise, Im being schooled to think that my culture influences my organizational reponse, and the ones in my counterparts, the people I`ll be negotiating with in the future, so studying culture differences has gained importance, but after this limited and not well thought analysis, I dare to think that maybe we should be putting a little focus on a globalized culture that is ruling young people today, those are the one`s that we need to understand.

(After thought: I`m more than sure that my entrie its totally wrong, and that by the ending of this course, I`ll be thinking completly different. I guess i just need notes for comparison at the end)
