Cultural Blunders and by a major corporation: "Starbucks’ big marketing blunder in South Korea shows how cultural blind spots can put global brands in a bind."

Translation is only part of the challenge for multinational companies. Words, slogans and symbols can take on entirely different meanings across cultures.

I am beyond thrilled. 😃 I have been working with a gifted fifth grader (I love this age) on his writing endeavors. The parents were concerned that he would sit there for hours without any writing to show.

Well, the writing was inside of him just ready to blossom. We worked through the writing blocks, developed a process, and discussed various ideas.

He placed first for his age group in a state-wide poetry competition. Now, he's working on a murder mystery that I am sure will turn into a novel. Bravo!
