While abroad, I learned a lot about thinking globally. It's interesting to be around different cultures and realize there's more to the world than just the United States. Sometimes in the United States we get too caught up on ourselves and do not take the time to accept diversity and other cultures. In everyday thoughts and actions we need to think globally, especially in the business world. It is important to take other cultures into consideration when speaking and making decisions. It would be easy to offend other cultures and ruin business deals if business professionals do not think globally.
The phrase "thinking globally and acting locally" could also refer to our environment. This encourages people to think of the consequences of everyday actions that could be harmful to our environment. This is important for businesses to realize the environmental damage their company could provide.
