Great interview with Braxton. Particularly, his thoughts on the benefit of "transparency". He used the term "sharing" which I think is important. Going out of your way to share a bit more information to not just the people that directly need it but to those that might indirectly value it (or just give them the feeling they are in the loop) can be important possibly six months down the road. It can be time-consuming up front but can streamline future activities and projects.
I'm glad you found it helpful. This is a subject that should be talked about more I think. Also, I think this increase in globalization must be matched by quality global governance so it will produce the prosperity we all hope for.
