The Leading Edge - Spring 2008 - (Page 2) SPRing volUme 8 iSSUe 3 2008 The Leading Edge dear Clients and Friends, Welcome to the latest edition of The Leading Edge magazine, a special publication for clients and friends of Leading Edge Alliance firms. Sure, we all make mistakes and our businesses are not immune to them either. Several business owners and executives open up about their missteps (usually costly) and how what they learned has made their businesses better. Read “No place to go but up” so you can learn without repeating their mistakes. Conducting business outside the United States requires another skill set whether you’re setting up operations in the country or simply interacting with business leaders in another country. “Business outside the United States” offers a practical perspective on the skills and considerations you need to have when going global. Read a good book lately? We want to know and perhaps share with Leading Edge readers in a future issue. Harvard Business Press recently came out with a series of lessons books for executives. Take a sneak peak in “Lessons from Harvard.” Also in this issue, we explore the “Top 10 misconceptions about doing business in Ireland” and our human resource adviser Chris DeSantis answers your workplace dilemma questions. We’d love to hear from you. If you have a topic you would like to see addressed in a future issue, or if you have comments on the material you see here, please contact us. Send your thoughts and ideas to Ann M. Gynn, managing editor, at ann@wisegroup.com. Sincerely, The Leading Edge Alliance Advice and information to help you manage your business 2 VOLUME 8 n ISSUE 3 n SPRING 2008
