內容大綱

Based in Islamabad, Pakistan, SYIT was a new entrant in the offshore software development industry.

SYIT needed to reduce the cultural gap between its team and its primary client, one of Denmark’s largest publishing houses. The managing director’s ultimate goal was to create an organization that was flexible and innovative—like the European clients that he wanted to continue to attract.
