Quote "Knowledge is about understanding people's cultural differences and similarities. It's understanding their backgrounds, what the business systems look like, the religious systems look like in different cultures, all the different ways, even linguistics and language, and how that helps us see the world in a different way from our different language point of view. These are different things that we look at our own cultural values and that's knowledge." - Kristin Joy Ekkens
