我們全部一起下來: lianzuo (集體責任)在中國

2008年3月11日由中國企業成功案例

由Jocelyn Eikenburg

小組責任在中國文化想像做刑期-或更壞-正因為您與觸犯的黨有關。

如果您想要瞭解多遠集體主義在中國進來,比lianzuo看沒有進一步-或集體責任。 在中國的2,000年封建歷史中-從一直BC至少7世紀到20世紀的交接-人們由協會是有罪的。 即,如果您是血親親戚或接近的商務夥伴有罪,您會需要一個秋天與他們一起。 中國日報文章提到它作為有連貫性的家庭-和我們在現代感覺,二者之一不意味「停留」。

有趣的事是,責任在中國文化今天仍然有舉行的小組-,即使它被認為一少許不合理。 讀其餘「我們所有一起下來: lianzuo (集體責任)在中國」或張貼評論

西部中國事務: 什麼是中國會議為?

2008年3月6日由中國企業成功案例

西部中國事務: 什麼是中國會議為我們介紹了格雷戈Bissky給您在一些更加早期的崗位(如果您錯過了那些,您能這裡發現他們: ‘西部和漢語事務更多比1種方式溝通`和`通信在中國辦公室). 這次格雷戈談論中國會議。 According to Greg, there are three times to a Chinese meeting, before the meeting, after the meeting and during the meeting. And the one time Chinese do not decide things, is during the actual meeting. Meetings are for maintaining harmony and relationships, decisions and arguments are made before and after.

Rui Shi - The Imperial Guardian Lions

March 5th, 2008 by China Business Success Stories

By Heather J. Hasan

Fu Dogs in ChinaHuge, mythical beasts with piercing eyes and gigantic, roaring mouths stand guard at many of China’s most important buildings and ancient structures. The name of these imposing creatures is “Fu Dogs” or Rui Shi (”auspicious dog” in Mandarin), also known as Imperial Guardian Lions.

Started during the Han Dynasty (206 B.C. – 220 A.D.), the tradition of placing two large statues of male and female lions near the entrance of an establishment was intended to ward off evil spirits and protect from enemies, and thieves. These statues were created from marble, bronze, iron, and granite and the cost was expensive, therefore only the wealthy could afford Fu Dog protection. Because of this, Fu Dogs became a symbol of wealth and prosperity. Read the rest of “Rui Shi - The Imperial Guardian Lions” or post a comment

Luxury Brands in China, Part II

Profiling the Chinese consumer

By Nick Debnam & George Svinos, KPMG

Chinese Luxury ShopperWhile hard work and plain living have been revered virtues of the Chinese people for generations, there has been a growth in demand for foreign-branded or imported goods.(19) But running counter to the growing habit of consumption in China is the traditional propensity to save. Though luxury consumption is growing, for most the dominant social idea is still prudent consumption and undertaking no more than you can perform. (20)

Research suggests that while the emerging middle class will continue to save heavily, they will also spend increasing amounts of money. (21) This is consistent with trends that suggest that China’s younger generation of teenagers and twenty-somethings show less of the caution of their parents and grandparents, and far more inclination to spend than to save.

What the Chinese Want You to Know about Networking

February 26th, 2008 by China Business Success Stories

By Alex Cureton-Griffiths

Networking in ChinaFor most foreigners, networking with Chinese can be a little tough. Well, thanks to a question we posted on LinkedIn Answers, we’re hoping to make things a little clearer. In brief:

They’re not that different

People often get so caught up in the differences that they fail to see the similarities between Chinese and western cultures. Just be yourself and don’t worry about skipping across the cultural minefield. Just as most of us would go easy on any local who made a social faux pas without knowing, local Chinese aren’t going to bite your head off if you accidentally put your foot in it.
