Thoughts on Korean Business by Don Southerton

  I am delighted to share my latest work, which explores global business trends and is featured as a Special Edition in the Incheon Free Economic Zone (IFEZ) Journal. Along with my Special Edition article, I provided both the translation of the Journal into English and the editorial review. It was an honor to be asked to share my insights, cultural understanding, and experience with Korea’s leading Free Economic Zone and the City of Incheon. I’ve been asked how I support businesses… the short answer is I bring solutions to Korean global business, and global firms working with Korea. I also seek exciting opportunities and challenges. If you encounter a deadlock, stalled work, or a potential issue that needs resolution, let’s discuss it. Please enjoy the article.  Don Southerton Are you interested in learning more about IFEZ and the opportunities? Dsoutherton@bridgingculture.com  ###
