The one Billion $ question? Seriously this is part of my todays speech addressed to Swiss Bankers and Asset-Managers about trust and reputation in high-level networks.


*************************************************************************************
After the Speech:

I am really surprised that so many Swiss (and Liechtensteiner) Bankers are using their social network profile actively online. But I also wonder that they are hardly aware that their (U)HNWI clients do so, too.  Let us hope, Bankers are starting to integrate the virtual world into their communication strategy. Whatever they do, all their action should be based on trust. Trust and reputation is only earned (on- and offline) through authentic, transparent and honest communication over time.

Thanks to the team and audience, it was a very inspiring lunch lecture and discussion. 

Now let us enjoy the sun onboard the Zürrisee Cruise Line. Hopp on and join our group.

Access Cosmopolitans



As my InterNations Ambassdor colleague in Moscow Peter Richter, manager at Ferrero International /Russia did put it once: It is a great pleasure and honour to organise such get together´s since you can talk and get acquainted to many international high profiles and decision makers who are sharing the same (Expatriates) needs and interests. You communicate at the same eye level and have your global peer group locally at one spot.

There is nothing more to add, than use your chance tonight and have a free cosmopolitan (the cocktail) with other free cosmopolitans (the people) at the amberclub.ch in Zurich, starting at 8 pm. For guest list http://www.internations.org/events/view_event/2228 For invitation to internations.org have a look to the right.

Access BEBO





Remember the old days, when aSW.com was a small world and Xing.com has been an open business club?

Well, bebo.com is back in town. While we are enjoying a warm and sunny spring day in Küsnacht (see picture background) AOL is relaunching its acquisition bebo.com in Germany, France, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands simultaneously.

The idea is to source friends (user) generated content from various platforms like Facbook, myspace, youtube, flickr and into your bebo.com profile.
For instance: www.bebo.com/schiessl

Nice idea, let us see if it is going to work and offering an appropriate alternative to facebook?

As a tribute to the old days I just started:

www.bebo.com/asmallworld
and
www.bebo.com/openbc

Feel free to join, let us rebuilt our old communities of friendship and trust.

Access Spring


Such a lovely sunny day at the Lake Zurich. Sitting at my desk, envisaging an elite private aviation club. I feel Love (spring) is in the air. Wish you a happy day all round the world. h
PS: As you know it is quite difficult to motivate users to upload a profile picture. A smart way to do this is to preinstall an image of e.g. George W. B. as the default picture. A really good idea.

Access Saint Patrick




To honour the Irish missionary and national patron saint, many Western people around the world get together to have a drink or more. Once a year they feel Irish and Catholic at heart.

Well we easily forget that the our western civilisation and culture is mainly based on the Christian value system. You might give this a thought, when you enjoy your next Guinness.

If you have a Western background or not you are cordially invited to join the InterNations.org St. Patricks Party taking place on Thursday the 19th of March at the Sugar Club in Munich. For details or guestlist feel free to mail to internations@globalisten.com
