The Audacity of Hope

Added by: 09 February 2009 . 21:02

I just read the book 'The Audacity of Hope' from elected president Barack Obama. I must say I could not agree more. The greatness of America lays in the fact that Americans have the audacity to hope for a better future. Europeans could learn a lesson from the Americans. Since I left The Netherlands 4,5 years ago my thoughts towards the USA changed drastically.

As the rest of Europe I was jealous of the success of the USA and nationalistic towards my own country, The Netherlands. Being 12000 kilometers away for several years gave me a new perspective. The difference between the Europeans and the Americas is that we mostly complain whereby Americans focus on positivism and hope towards a better future. Like Obama mentions in his book.

Creative Outsourcing is starting to become more and more common place for companies and clients in the developed world. The Internet, email, and lately collaborative applications like Skype, ClockingIT, Basecamp, WebEx have made it easier to outsource creative work as long as it can be send digitally. Creative Work has long been considered difficult to outsource since it needed close contact between client & provider and is often culture specific. Creative work is now the new outsourcing threshold. Where can you best outsource Creative Work? To India where the majority of programming is going or to China, the manufacturing giant? What about Eastern Europe or Mexico? Finally all water flows to the lowest point.
