You have valuable real work experiences and I hope that yours is a voice that can share them widely with others where you are. To me, your key to solve some of the problems by hiring 'bridge' employees and systematizing/educating to…"
Dr. Linda Myers replied to Steven S. Bammel's discussion Korea Business Central Exclusive Interview - Linda Myers, "Working at the Top in SK Group: An Insider's Story""Over the long haul the synergy of language, culture, gender, and labor law (still unclear to this day regarding the two year limit on contracted employees) all converged. But remember -- I was not singled out because of my gender. There were two…"
Dr. Linda Myers replied to Steven S. Bammel's discussion Korea Business Central Exclusive Interview - Linda Myers, "Working at the Top in SK Group: An Insider's Story""Your math is correct.

It was a one year contract, and I was told by the VP of HR when I hesitated and began to…"

None of the three SK foreign executives would call our time in Korea a failure, and I feel very sorry for you and/or executive leadership if our time there is being labeled as such. There was so much more good that came from our time than bad,…"

I cannot thank you enough for this post. One part of me (affective) wants to tell you that your words washed over me like a big hug, which I will always cherish and be able to go back and read.
The other part of me (intellectual) wants to…"

Dr. Linda Myers replied to Steven S. Bammel's discussion Korea Business Central Exclusive Interview - Linda Myers, "Working at the Top in SK Group: An Insider's Story""Gary,
Clearly you listened actively to this interview and have commented generously. My responses to two of yours:
1) I do not believe that anywhere in this interview has it been stated that there are no world-class companies in Korea. World-class…"

- Hello Dr. Myers,
I quite enjoyed the post and discussion regarding your work at SK. I recall coaching a women at a web company called Saltcake in preparation for her presentation to you. She and her company had been working on your international recruitment site. She had been nervous in the lead up to the meeting with you. However afterwards, she said to her surprise, working with you was not nearly as painful as other such presentations she had given. In fact, she said that you were a very pleasant person to work with and you created a working environment that was quite enjoyable for her.
Thank you again for your interesting content. This site has taken a good bit of my facebook time... and that is entirely a good thing!
