IBM Corporate Service Corps

I have been selected to go to China as part of IBM's Corporate Service Corps Program :-) This program was launched in 2008 to help provide IBMers with high quality leadership development while delivering high quality problem solving for communities and organizations in emerging markets. The program empowers IBM employees as global citizens by sending groups of 10 - 15 individuals from different countries with a range of skills to an emerging market for four week community-based assignments. During the assignment, participants perform community-driven economic development projects working at the intersection of business, technology, and society.

I will be in China for a month from Mid May to Mid June to in a place called Jia Xing along with 11 other folks from 9 different countries !!
