L'errore molta gente fa quando agganciare i fornitori o prodotti d'acquisto in Cina è di pensare a buon mercato. Prezzo costo-più basso più basso, sconto di sconto di sconto. Ci è un'alternativa e molto migliori che i commercianti attualmente non stanno sfruttando.

Per esempio lascia l'introito un l'accoppiamento dei pattini. Quasi 50% di tutti i pattini ha venduto nel Regno Unito proviene in Cina. Ora i costi hanno coinvolto nella produzione dell'accoppiamento dei pattini includono il costo dei materiali, IE. cuoio, il costo di imballaggio, il costo di…

Secondo Periodi finanziari, tutti abbiamo scelto la carriera errata quando abbiamo deciso essere creatori, doers ed assistenti. I soldi grandi sono in soldi muoventesi intorno e gli affari di stipendio migliori in Cina stanno dandi ai creatori di affare ora.

Il cinese locale e le aziende di servizi finanziari internazionali hanno tratto beneficio dall'apertura recente del mercato. Le aziende straniere sono arrivato ad un buon tempo, con i volumi enormi di contanti che rovesciano intorno nei clienti di banca unrewarding, o trovantesi sotto i materassi.

My friend Chris Carr, dean of the CalPoly MBA program and the brains behind the International Business Tour blog has a very thoughtful post, entitled, “Will Paying More Change Behavior And Make Someone More Ethical?” Thoughtful, but wrong.

The post centers on whether paying more gets you better performance and/or better ethics, and Chris pretty much says it does not:

“Some suggested that we could solve the problem of too many defective products coming from China by paying more to the Chinese suppliers that make this stuff. I questioned that assumption, and still do.

One example I gave in that discussion thread was that if paying people more solved the problem, then why does paying most good employees more still result in good performance, but not superior performance? (See Comment No. 29.) And why does paying most bad employees more money still get you bad performance, and not good performance? (If you feel that more money correlates to higher performance, come see me after you have hired, managed and fired more than a few people, and let’s compare notes.)”

Besides the human tragedy, there has always been a certain irony in the fact that the communist system has never been able to achieve its main goal: to bring prosperity to the masses.

More specifically in China, there first where the farmers that did not particularly benefited from the revolution that was undertaken in their name. And now, much to Beijing’s chagrin one imagines, one scandal after another regarding the maltreatment of workers hits the international press circuit.

But, help is underway. Starting January 1, 2008, the new labour contract law will come in force in China. Surprisingly it has many characteristics of the Dutch system which will give rise to some alarm among employers familiar with the Dutch system. Read the rest of “Workers’ paradise” or post a comment
