Product Management and Product Marketing

The Queen of Seoul

Korean ArtAs a follow up to the earlier stories about the Challenges of Overseas Manufacturing (Part I, Part II, Part III), I’d like to give a shout out to Heejeong Haas, the “Queen of Seoul.” Heejeong performed translation services for us in some important negotiations with our Korean business partners and made a huge difference in the end result by tactfully bridging not only the language gap but the cultural gap. If you need a Korean translator, she would be my first call. She also has a very interesting blog if you want to dive into more of the details about cross-cultural business communications, and locking yourself on hotel balconies.

    You just had to mention that balcony story…
    I am very honored to be mentioned in your blog.
    I have been running crazy all over the places for the past couple of months, and I think it is time for me to get more diligent with my blog!!!
