Life at Livescribe

It’s been a while since my last blog. Now you can see the Pencast created by Livescribe, where I am currently driving the global roll-out program.

The world here is very different from my old worlds of consumer package goods, educational toys and Change Leadership consulting. Here, I am living and breathing cutting-edge technology and innovation. And fortunately it is personally very fulfilling.
When I came abroad from China in 1991, I literally started my life from infancy in terms of culture and communication. Although I had attended the best schools all the way through college in Beijing China, my English conversational skills were not adequate.

Now 18 years later, I am equipped with the best technology, platform and position to help people learn languages across different countries, cities, schools and levels. If I could give any advice to thousands of students coming to the US with big ambitions and dreams, I would say “don’t be afraid of learning anything and starting from scratch.”
So, cheers. Here is the first English lesson for Helen.
