ResponderBorrarHi Majo, i agree with you, globalization wouldn’t exist if technology didn’t stand on our side, it is a major component in our lives and each day we are being more and more dependent from it. Great job! :)
ResponderBorrarHello.
ResponderBorrarI love the image you added, it describes perfectly the topic.
About the first question, I like what you wrote but I did it different because I tried to explain the difference between managing information withing the organization vs outside it so, what I came up was that the one inside is related to the exchange of knowledge through focusing every area on the same goals looking for a higher productivity, and as the one outside is about dealing with news media, manage corporate news and controlling public company crises, I think it is more related to public image, what do you think?
By the way, I totally agree with the fact that saving time is equal to saving money.
Hi Majo! Such a nice job, your information is clear and concise, it makes very clear to understand the topic. Also, I think you describe perfectly the way that globalization affects technology and how to use it. It's impressive how eventually everything will be more connected.
ResponderBorrarHey Majito! I just read your work and the truth is that I agree a lot with all your answers and it allows me to consider more options in terms of what I put in, excellent work.
