Malaysian employers complain they can’t find programmers. Those who have programmers complain they can’t find good programmers.

From Jim Ware
The future of work is about a whole lot more than cost cutting. The real, and long-lasting, benefits of embracing new work patterns, adopting alternative workplace strategies, and leveraging new workforce values and expectations have a lot more to do with attracting, retaining, and leveraging creative talent.
I will be blogging more about what works (overseas) and what sort of “new work patterns” and “alternative workplace strategies” I’m employing to get the most competent people to collaborate on a project. Stay tuned.
WebWatch Malaysia is back ;)
