Close Encounters of the 4th Kind:
.
Doing Multi-Cultural Business with Little Green Men (and Women)!
.
An original Business blog article by Yonatan Maisel

If you’re looking for a skeptic, I guarantee you, they do not come bigger than me. I don’t believe in “Bigfoot,” (Sasquatch), I think the Loch Ness Monster is a bunch of hogwash and I think that those who believe in aliens and UFOs are…
.
Wait, just a second…
.
It was about quarter past two in the morning, just over eight hours ago. My wife Rivkah opened the back door to let our eight year old Canaan dog into the backyard (I’m allergic to dander and the very sight of the dog made me think of getting the best air conditioner filters for allergies and pet dander). That’s when I heard my normally calm and collected wife yell, “Holy SHIT Yoni…get out here NOW!!!”
.
Her rare use of a curse-word was all the proof I needed that it was something VERY out of the ordinary! I ran!
.
To my utter shock, we witnessed for a span of about sixty seconds an orang-ish, translucent, disc-shaped object hovering in the Jerusalem sky, moving in crazy patterns and doing things that no aircraft can possibly do! Then, in a flash, it turned towards Bethlehem, flew at phenomenal speed and disappeared over the Jordanian mountains in seconds flat!

Multicultural? Try Inter-Planetary!
Yes, we live in a new Global-Village connected by wires, circuits and Social Media. We are told, rightfully so, that in order to succeed, we need to be “wired in.” There truly is a world of billions to do Business with!
.
But as the owner of my own Small Business, I am a writer, I’m going one step further to get a leg-up on the competition!.
.
I’ve had clients and customers from India, South America, the U.S., Russia and beyond. Now it is the “BEYOND” that I’m thinking about more and more!
.
Maybe that strange object in the sky was a weather phenomenon, maybe it was some sort of optical illusion? I don’t care!
.
If they were aliens, there’s a new Market to be cornered!
.
If their goal is not to wipe us out (if it were, they probably would have done so already), it must be to have some sort of relationship with us Earthlings. Maybe they wish to live amongst us in peace.
.
I’m hoping they wish to work amongst us too! And for that they will need resumes, corporate bios, cover letters, speeches, blogs and all of the other things which a good writer can offer them!
.
As is the case with cross-cultural Business, I might have to learn a new language. I might have to learn and internalize cultural nuances, traits, characteristics, and respect differences. Hell, I might have to get used to shaking green, slimy hands! I’m willing to do so.
.
.
Be forewarned. We truly live in a multi-cultural world.
.
A society which might soon include “Little Green People!”
.
Is Your Business prepared for the cross-cultural world…
.
Of the 21st Century?

Ben,
Certainly not genius! Just, perhaps, a rather odd and out-of-the-ordinary perspective on things.
And if I can add a little business advice to things I feel I’ve done something.

Alan,
And who could forget that musical score: “Dah, Dah, Duh, Duh…DAAAHH!”
It was a brilliant movie and I hope nobody contacts me about violation of copywrite for using the “Close Encounters” name!
Thanks for stopping by!
