We Must Communicate In Business!
Business Communication! Oh what a glorious thing! Without it, firms would be drained down the toilets. With it, firms climb their own Mt. Everest in the corporate Himalayas. The simple fact of the matter is that organizations cannot function without organizational communication. People need face-to-face interaction. We need documents like memos. We need presentations like power-points. But above all, we need cross-cultural understanding. In our ever increasingly globalized world we need to understand more than just the words of another. We must understand their gestures, facial features, and overall expressions. Management can function with its hierarchical chain of demand. But a firm will only thrive under the tutelage of collaborative communication. In the word's of the Lego Movie, "everything is awesome, everything is cool when you're part of a team".We meet and we work not only to set goals and standards, but also to listen to the concerns and inquiries of others. We learn, network, and get to work. All else is arbitrary detail.

My Marvelous Intro
Daniel McKinley is nothing less than an extraordinarily passionate man who's on a quest to understand the world. Despite there being 7 billion people out there, he is exquisitely like none other. His background is clearly unlike the average man. Daniel McKinley was born in Singapore and has additionally lived in Utah, Maryland, California, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and even Cambodia! Consequentially he doesn't consider anyone place to be home. He would rather think of himself as a citizen of the world. He is at ease communicating with those of varying backgrounds. He's had friends from over 50 countries and can converse in Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese, Khmer, and Vietnamese. Before he could walk and talk he had already had several pages stamped in his passport. Thus early on in his life he had a deep and rather thrilling interest in Geography.
Currently Daniel McKinley is a student attending Brigham Young University in Provo Utah. After changing his majors a few times he has decided to focus on the study of finance. Money, banking, business, sales, and even non-profits have interested Mr. McKinley for quite some time now. But his current aspiration is to simultaneously develop new higher education models and link universities with professional firms. He has long been an aggressive networker who has been sincerely interested in the well being of others. He would gladly be a friend to all.
The world's culture, people, history, and politics have always fascinated Mr. McKinley. During his pastime he is a voracious reader and lover of the natural world. Growing up in a large family he has developed a strong taste for fine cuisines and strategically provoking board-games. He overwhelmingly cares about the common man and has long been interested in numerous service organizations such as the BSA. If you ever have a chance to meet him he would love to strike up a conversation with you!
