Your blog is interesting and well thought out; it is obvious that you have years of experience. I myself have worked in procurement, international compliance, supply chain management, international sales and logistics for twenty years. I agree that companies and individuals cannot be afraid to take some risks internationally and that the rewards many times are worth any hardship. I particularly enjoyed the interview of Derek Leathers of Werner. I respect the fact that his company diversified in preparation for an economic downturn. Many of the players I see going out of business today have not learned this lesson. I read the Rainmaker articles and appreciated the varied perspectives.
