Following on from my post about Ireland’s slowing Celtic tiger economy, today let’s turn to the small nation of Iceland where banking collapse now seems to be triggering increasingly angry protests.
(For an insight into the developing social unrest see this article in Thursday’s UK Guardian newspaper.)
A while back, one of my American friends in Japan relocated to Iceland for a dream IT job with an Icelandic computer games company. He’s still there and, as far as I know, still gainfully employed.
Like me, he’s also an experienced IT professional and I’m thus doubly fascinated (now wearing my career coaching hat) to find out how white collar folks are coping / surviving in Reykjavik.
I’ll be sending him a list of questions and we’ll see which ones he can answer without getting sacked 
If you’ve a question for him please leave a comment below or use my contact form by this weekend.
