Thunderbird on Global Business Strategy

But when you consider the awesome power of the Internet to connect foreign competitors with suppliers and markets anywhere in the world with a keystroke not to mention the precipitous toppling of political barriers to free trade over the past decade it becomes clear that your company's competitive future now depends on your ability to think and act globally.
