I believe that one of the most difficult things in internationalization is changing mental models. This means looking at the North American market — and the reality that an American faces — the way that they do. Because of this it’s important to speak the language, which is much more than simply talking in English: it is going deep into the culture and seeing things with a different vision — theirs.
