Eileen Brophy (asker) Apr 1, 2010:
Giovanni, being a translator, you should know how to point out a mistake and not use your words so negatively I would have thought? After all he is a colleague and also deserves respect in making a "positive" criticism surely? Isn´t that what we do... use language well?
Giovanni Rengifo Apr 1, 2010:
CREATE VS. GENERATE VALUE I think they both mean the same and can be used interchangeably, can't they?
Giovanni Rengifo Apr 1, 2010:
@Eileen I actually just pointed out the mistakes in our colleague's answer and gave my objective opinion about it. How is that aggressive? I don't understand.
Nelson Aguillon Apr 1, 2010:
I actually removed my answer based on Giovanni's comment.
Jenni Lukac (X) Apr 1, 2010:
In response to your comment Eileen, I went for value creation based on the word "como" - how. If I had read "qué,"-what, I would have seconded Giovanni's suggestion of generation. If elsewhere in the text the "what" crops up, I think "what generates value" would be perfect.
Eileen Brophy (asker) Apr 1, 2010:
So Jenni, my deduction was correct then?
(Giovanni, how about not being so agressive when you disagree with people? Just an observation)
Nelson Aguillon Apr 1, 2010:
"to determine when and where its worthiness is determined"

generation of (customer) value

Most likely. This being a marketing text, I don't think they're talking about "values".
Peer comment(s):

agree Jessica Noyes : Yes to this, and to "adding" value, both used in the article I posted above.
