Chinesische Bewegungsfreiheit

15. Juni 2007 durch China Geschäft Erfolg-Geschichten

Chinesische BewegungsfreiheitRon Cune erfuhr China zum ersten Mal während eines fantastischen Feiertags. Ein Kurs im Chinesen, in einem Austauschprojekt und in einem Rundreiseweiterem wurde er dem Land gewidmet. Nach dem Empfangen einer finanziellen Prämie nahm er seine Wahrscheinlichkeiten: er zog nach China um. Z.Z. bleibt er in einem angenehmen Büro in Beijing und seine Firma DragonDancers hat Blitzgeschwindigkeit erreicht. Die Philosophie hinter dem DragonDancers Markennamen: der chinesische Drache tanzt durch vollkommene Korrdination, Zusammenarbeit und Harmonie zwischen die, die sie bewegen lassen. Cune erklärt, wie eine westliche Firma in das Land des Drachen gleichmäßig glatt umziehen kann.

„Für den Chinesen, `Gesicht' ist sehr wichtig. Prestigeverlust ist für sie verhängnisvoll, also müssen Sie tactfully in Verbindung stehen und fungieren.“ Cune fand dieses die harte Weise heraus: „Die Sache, die ich in meinem ersten Job schadete, war beschäftigen Sie Leute in übereinstimmung mit westlichen Standards und sie für Tätigkeit zu drücken. Diplomatie war nicht mein stärkster Punkt. Ich kam hier als 24 Jahr - alter Absolvent von der Haarlem Schule der Volkswirtschaft bei einer lokalen Firma an und sollte die Managementstruktur vollständig reorganisieren. Das arbeitete nicht an allen aus, und innerhalb eines und einer Hälfte Monate war ich heraus auf den Straßen wieder.“ Es war teilweise diese Erfahrung, die Ron Cune holte, in dem er jetzt ist. Sein DragonDancers setzt eine ideale Plattform für westliche Firmen, die wenig im chinesischen Markt, als sorgfältig laufen lassen möchten er zurückzog dann fest.

Verhältnis basiert auf gegenseitigem Vertrauen
Das Beschäftigen chinesische Leute ist etwas, das Ron Cune gut heutzutage erarbeitet, und sein Netz hat schnell über die Jahre erweitert. He has several instructions that might suit you well, starting with some background information. “Chinese people seem to be more distrustful than the average Westerner, who simply trusts his contracts. Maybe this is a result of what happened during the Cultural Revolution. Communities were set at one another’s throats; the craziness went so far that children sometimes even reported their own parents to the party. Whether that has been the reason or not, by all means it is worth building up a relationship based on mutual trust with your business partner. Regularly inquire about his private situation and make use of everything you know about him. See, for example, to personal promotional gifts. It doesn’t have to be more complicated than that.”

Impressive presents
Giving presents to your partners is part of the game in China. Is there more that you need to know about this habit? “Success and status are partially measured here by strong relationships, preferably with high-placed persons, and of course by material goods. But stability within the family is just as important for prestige. For that matter, when presenting a promotional gift, you have the chance of killing three birds with one stone. Do not buy a gift for your partner for example, but for his wife. If you are going to spend leisure time together, then do something with the whole family. In that way you enhance the relationship as well as the family ties and material status.”

Double flexibility
With the necessary tact and diplomacy you move more flexibly in the country of Tai Chi, and China itself even doubles your freedom of movement, according to Cune. “An enormous difference with where I come from is the 24-hour economy of China. If I decide on Thursday evening that I feel like going to a concert and I have to take a plane the next day at 12 noon to Shanghai, and in between I also want to do some shopping, then that is all possible. Chinese society is super-flexible. On the other hand, that also means that you shouldn’t look strange – and certainly not become angry – if appointments are cancelled or made at short notice. The timetable for that company trip in 3 months? Forget it; I cannot give you that now. The planning for confirming and reconfirming is the standard here. In a nutshell this country is about: coordination, collaboration, and harmony. And a real DragonDancer feels very comfortable with that.”
