Waxing and Wayning is for parent leaders, school leaders, and business leaders. Topics cover financial matters and organizational leadership.

Here’s a little info about this podcast:
I’ve blogged since December 2006 and I’ve enjoyed learning from podcasts for a dozen plus years. The Waxing and Wayning Podcast combines these two worlds: my interest in blogging and podcasts.
With each three-to-five-minute podcast, my primary aim to inspire current and future organizational leaders. Remember that my hope is that you leave each podcast with a line of thinking, an idea, or a question to ponder or research that will impact your world of work.
Here's to the journey.
In today’s podcast we will delve a little into doing business in China. Specifically, we will focus on preparing yourself, or your colleagues, to effectively and productively work in other cultures.
