Globalisation

Jeyavel in Bangalore wrote an interesting post on Globalisation

In it, he has Friedman's explanation of his three phases of globalization:
Globalization 1.0 between 1492 to 1820 A.D.: You went global though your Country which was the agent of the development.

Globalization 2.0 between 1820 to 2000 A.D.: The Company, full with cash to fund marketing and sourcing activities, went global in quest for further profits.

Globalization 3.0 from 2000 onwards: The Individual has received access to the global field; think of yourself as a company that can interact and transact with another 3 billion individuals. Cool, exciting and terrific.
Friedman’s ultimate success formula:
“Curiosity Quotient” plus “Passion Quotient” is always bigger than “Intelligence Quotient”
CQ + PQ > IQ
