Some people might think that a global leader is an remarkable person. However, I belive that a global leader is a person who is interested in global issues. This is because knowing about global issues helps people to catch up with globalization and get better chances in job market.
First, it is significant for people to learn about global affairs to live in this globalized world. There is a butterfly effect, which often used to describe today's world. It means a flock of small butterfly in China causes a huge hurricane in United States. So different continents are affected by each others and it is difficult for individuals to live without knowing about world. For example, If the price of oil increased dramatically in the Middle East, Koreans will have to worry about using their private car. This is mainly due to the fact that everyone. As it shows, people have to know about global issues since it affects their daily lives.
In addition, people have to learn about global affairs to get jobs easily. Globalization is progressing and boundaries are disappearing. Thus, people prefer open-minded and smart employees who can deal with tasks around the world. One inverviewer said, " We need an employee who can cooperate well with companions with different cultures and who can offer suggestions which can be admitted to everywhere. In other words, we need a person who is more competitive." This says, learning about current issues prepares people to be employeed more easily.
To summarize, I think that people have know global issues although it seems useless to them. They can easily adapt themselves to globalized world and be more competitive in job market by learning about global issues. |
