In outsourcing business, we often deal with the
differences between the West and the East
§ Communication / Language
§ Integrity: Honest, keep your promise, and be accountable

Not mentioning the challenges of different time zone
and the long distance between offshore and onsite,
must build trust through common culture / behavior

AIM FOR SOMETHING LONG ENOUGH
If you don’t see that far, how do you know you’re if you’re
on the right path?
Some questions to ask
§ What do you see in the next 5 years? 10 years? And
beyond that
§ Is software outsourcing is the means or the purpose?
I suggest you to think about how to build a sustainable
business. And once again, it would be around building
people.
