What's IBM CSC

The IBM Corporate Service Corps 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. Teams typically consist of groups of 10-15 IBMers from countries around the world, who come from different business backgrounds with different skills. The teams are sent to emerging markets for four week community-based assignments. Team members are engaged for a total of six months - three months preparing for the trip, one month on location, and two months after the trip back at IBM sharing their experiences. Approximately 500 IBMers are given the opportunity to participate in the program each year, and since the program's inception more than 2400 participants comprising 200+ teams have been sent to 30+ countries around the world.

17th of February... retaking normal life

The rain helped remove an important part of the ashes yesterday night. Most of the shops, companies... are deep cleaning today to re-take business life tomorrow.

It seems there is no longer risk of eruption but the authorities keep the maximum level of alarm as the volcano still throws important quantities of ash.
We have been working at the hotel in our deliverables. As we will have three days less for in-site training we have re-built the content of some workshops we planned to do with SAPDA's staff. We will be covering some important topics: communication and public speaking, marketing, international regulations, Excel, PowerPoint, documentation process and storage.


After our working day we have gone for a walk to Malioboro area.
I have finally tasted real Yogja life, street markets, book markets...



Malioboro street

We have followed the Receptionist suggestion for dinner and went to R&B Grill. We have really enjoyed the atmosphere, a rare combination of grill made food with R&B live music.
The food was great and the performance of the musicians excellent.

We liked very much the decoration and the possibility to cook our meat in the hot stone.
