(from a) global view / perspective

"Vision of the whole" poderia ser também uma opção, mas não me soa tão bem.

neutral Marlene Curtis : Uma visão total não é necessariamente uma visão global.

neutral kashew : Maybe ambiguous was not being totally accurate, but global is an over-used buzzword IMO. Global warming, global view etc...

Roger that. I think I know what you mean.
agree Douglas Bissell : Depite understanding Marlene's and kashew's doubts, "Global" is a buzz-word many customers like to see in their translations. I wouldn't knock it so quickly. Global perspective sounds better to my ear (but, hey I'm stone deaf)

I think I got what Marlene tried to say. Sometimes "global" is used to refer to something that's not in depth, like an overview or summary.

the big picture

This is often used.

big picture
the whole story of something; a complete view of something. (*Typically: get ~; have ~; give someone ~; know ~; see ~; show someone ~.) The sales manager gave us all the big picture this morning, and I'm more confused than ever.

disagree kashew : I have serious doubts about this as appropriate here. It is certainly informal to GB ears. Sorry to disagree with so many.

Would you mind telling us why? Does this sound too informal?
neutral Douglas Bissell : I too have some doubts as to the informality of the phrase in this context, even though it is a phrase I use myself frequently. Good answer, wrong context

disagree Marlene Curtis : Technically correct, but it doesn't fit in the context. One usually sees the "big picture".
