DOWNLOAD EBOOKChina has emerged on the world scene as a major economic and political force that appears destined to surpass the United States-a portent of the future that goes well beyond anything the U.S. has faced before. The business practices of today's China are a mixture of traditional values and customs combined with Western concepts and practices that, despite bumps in the highway, are propelling the country forward at warp speed. This book addresses both the traditional and modern-day aspects of how business is done in China, and offers valuable insights in how to deal with them effectively. It also covers aspects of China's appearance on the international scene and the globalization of its economy that are political in nature. It is an ideal handbook for businesspeople, consultants, educators, and students.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe key to your success in business in China is developing your ability to gain the trust of your Chinese business partners. This book is a practical guide that will show you how to do that. Business in China is very relationship based and takes longer than the largely transaction based way of doing business in the west. This book was written to help you to increase your understanding of Chinese culture and teach you the etiquette to achieve business success in a hierarchical society like China. It’s essential that you understand how Chinese business culture revolves around the concepts of “face” and “guanxi (relationship)” and learn to follow proper etiquette, which is based on these concepts. This book will teach you how to do this. The book also gives you practical advice on how to successfully hold business meetings, and negotiate, with the Chinese, and on the importance of using intermediaries and how to choose one. You’ll also learn tips on how to socialize with Chinese, which is critical to gaining their trust and achieving your objectives in business. This book was written with those doing business in China front of mind, but it is also very useful for those who want to learn more about Chinese culture for other purposes. Whether you’re traveling to China for vacation or holiday, going to school in China, or maybe just want to learn more about your Chinese coworkers or neighbors, this book can give you insight into how Chinese people may be thinking and their way of doing things.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAs business becomes increasingly globalized and China establishes its growing role in the international business environment, developing an understanding of the complex culture is important to anyone acting in the global arena. This book offers readers a thorough and nuanced resource to that end, describing the ever-evolving Chinese way of life circa 2014, based on extensive primary and secondary data. Taking an anthropological approach to achieve a well-rounded representation, the book covers 51 topics that would have been studied if China were a newly discovered civilization. It explores the culture through its examination of the nine core concepts that best represent the Chinese way of life. While the book is a rigorous treatment of the Chinese way of life, it is also filled with personal stories and perspectives from close to 1000 successful Chinese from academia, business, and government. The Chinese Way equips international business students, scholars, and practitioners with a deep understanding of a society that is a major player in global business today and offers a foundation for successful business interactions with Chinese companies, organizations, and people.
