Three months have passed since I launched my blog along with my new website. I am fully aware of the fact that I haven’t made a single blog post since the introductory post in April. In my defense, however, during the past three months I found myself wishing that I had 48 hours a day just to finish one more email or one more small project. However the past three months were the most valuable and amazing time I ever experienced personally and professionally for many different reasons. I experienced tremendous growth, and I appreciate all the support, help, and kindness I received from those who care about me—yeah, you know who you are.
To be honest, I was contemplating a great deal what to write about and how I am supposed to sound like. Since there are just too many things to talk about I was feeling rather lost among all different things I could talk about. On top of that, I didn’t know that writing a blog post periodically requires a certain discipline and diligence. I finally got a wake up call and decided first to write things from my personal experience to ease my pain and to just be myself. There are many pundits and experts who write about theoretical aspect of problems in cross-cultural and intercultural communications and negotiations. Since I don’t only offer consulting service but also I participate in a real negotiations and meeting processes as a communication facilitator, I thought that my real-world experience will help my blog readers in a way different than those experts. Please ask me any questions or make any comments you have in your mind. I would love to meet you all and think about and provide solutions for your concerns.
So, now, it is mid July, and I am taking a new vow to write a blog post periodically. At least, I should never let it go without posting anything for 3 months like this.
So, let’s explore all different aspects of Korean culture, Korean business culture, and other things that may occur when we do business with Korean business partners.
Are you ready? I am.
