Workshop ten

faith and learning

“’Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will make you fishers of men.’ At once they left their nets and followed him.”

Mark 1:17-18, New International Version

Jesus understood the necessity of selecting the right people for the right job. Jesus chose His disciples and then spent the next three years training them for the job He had selected them for. In international business we need to select the right people and then spend the necessary time and money to prepare them to be successful in the role that we have chosen for them.
