About BusinessGuide

Hi everyone who is reading this. First of all thank you for visiting my personal blog. I have devoted this blog just to publish business articles, business tips, economic reports and important business news.


This is my first blog I ever created in my life. And I think I will continue to create more blogs and write down what ever I am interested in. 


This blog however is devoted to summarising business news and analysis. The reason why I do such thing is that I love business and how it works so much. I love the challenge, and I love how there's no one correct answer or formulae that equals success. Unlike mathematics and statistics, business, finance and economics are dynamic. They change all the time. In the last century, business was about managing the status quo. Business was about trying to manage a pre-defined process and systems. The more managers can stick to compulsory tasks and written guildlines, the better. 


Today that has changed. The introduction of the internet and the world wide web, globalisation, international trade, air travel, ipod, iphones, and all advanced technologies you can name of has changed people's lives, and things are moving more rapidly than you can imagine. If you buy a new phone today, the next day it will be out-dated, if you buy a plasma TV today, the next day you get 3D screens. Youtube, facebook, emails, msn has made things change more rapidly. 


Therefore, today's business is about manging change. Things are now being harder to predict, consumers change their taste all the time. Business strategies change according to the changing competetive field. Customers tastes, and technology changes how things work on a daily basis. So it is important today that business people are informed about these changes, and is able to adapt to those changes so they do not become obsolete. Apple went from 90days toward bankrupcy to producing the smartest phones on earth, Sumsung went from producing electronic parts to producing smart phones, 3D TVs, and you name it. A decade ago, people only worked in a square-room office, today companies allow people to work online, at home, at a park where they can be most creative and invent innovative products.


Hence, I think this is a good place where I can share this information, and help those interested in business understand what is happening out there, and what is important to manage. Is it the fixed precedures and guidlines, senior executives write, or is it the people, or is it the technology that has to be managed? What is the new trend of consumer taste and demand, and which industry is growing faster in what economies? 


I will try my best to update and answer those questions to whoever visits the blog. I don't require anything in return, and it is my hobbie and passion to write.
