What you do need is an open mind and the desire to become a global generalist. This book will help. Based on 15 years of experience helping companies go global, author John Yunker provides:
In the information economy, information is power. In the translation economy, translation is power. Thanks to translation and localization, companies like Apple, Nike, and General Electric now make more money from outside the US than from within it.

In addition, you'll find the ultimate globalization checklist that your web, marketing, and product teams can use to make sure you go global the right way.
