These connections not only allow you to learn about other cultures, but also to make new friends in other parts of the world.

It may seem crazy to you, but my change of job came thanks to the fact that the person with whom I was related to make my old company successful recommended me for a logistics management position in his company, my surprise is that I did not know anything, this new company offered me a great salary and many benefits. When I was finally selected, they told me who recommended me.

It has drawbacks, too. So many cultures have unwritten rules in business that you'll never get anywhere without knowing. I had MANY embarrassing mistakes early on. I do agree though, the variety of people I get to work with is amazing.
