In this climate of mass globalisation, pressure is on HR to make sure their
companies and workforces appear in as good a global light as possible. This
site was originally set up as a Web-based cross-cultural business resource but
now predominantly aims to help US companies globalise their presence on the
Internet. It is an incredibly useful site if you need to get information on a
particular country or culture at short notice. Whether you need to know voltage
requirement in Aruba, Croatia’s currency, what language is spoken in Guadeloupe
or gestures you should avoid in the Middle East, this site has the answer. It
has no fussy graphics, and takes you straight to the information. Although
registration is required (this takes a few minutes), most of the information on
the site is free.
