Globalization Yesterday and Today

The discovery of a global world created a tremendous wave of change that swept the
world during the 16th century. Knowledge, wealth, politics, business were redefined in
radical new ways. The balance of power among nations shifted to favor those who
learned how to navigate the seas of the new global reality.

Five centuries later, we are living a similar experience. A powerful wave of globalization
is changing our world, presenting huge challenges as well as great opportunities for
everybody. And again, old, established powers are being dethroned by new upstarts
who discover how to navigate in today’s global world.
A Challenging Sea for Companies

As a result, companies around the world are facing tremendous challenges: demand
for increased returns from investors, fierce competition for old and new markets,
tremendous pressure to reduce costs, increase quality, and maximize customer value.

These forces have led companies to develop bold strategies to serve global markets,
redesign manufacturing footprint to support them, and restructure their supply chains to
keep those systems going.

This challenge demands from companies effective responses in all those areas;
however, this is a highly complex process facing multiple alternatives and difficult
decisions. In particular, mid and small-sized companies often lack the specialized
resources needed to produce effective solutions.
