Nu wij neer aan de 2008 Olympische spelen tellen, zijn first-time en niet zo recente bezoekers aan China zonder twijfel wat benieuwd zij zullen zien wanneer zij in de komende maand augustus in Peking landen. Ter voorbereiding van de spelen, zullen wij elke kans te baat nemen om de veranderingen te beschrijven die in China plaatsvinden en het beeld schilderen van hoe het land in een ander jaar zal kijken.
Met de voortdurende economische welvaart van China en de verhoging van rijkdom heeft het voor honderden miljoenen van Chinees, één sector betekend die verandert en snel toegevoegde impuls van de verwachte aanval van bezoekers volgend jaar is de diensten krijgt.

One of the trends inherent to the economic growth in China, is the fact that more and more people are taking Chinese language classes. The best way to do that? Go to China and talk to Sally Zhang. She works as Program Director at the Chinese Language Education organization in Beijing. Conveniently located in the middle of Beijing’s business center.
Beijing is home to most of her students. “At this moment, we are teaching Chinese to 82 students. Mostly Westerners, but also people coming from Japan and Korea. The continuously increasing amount of students can to a degree be explained, by the steadily increasing number of foreign companies in China. A few years ago, there was only the Chinese bank, nowadays I have five students who work for foreign banks operating in China. These financial professionals need to be able to read newspapers and documents in English as well as in Chinese. Fortunately for them, they work at companies where English is, at this point in time, the most common language.”

No one will buy a design or consulting service if they have no idea about what the designer or consultant is talking about. But once that designer or consultant describes his creative ideas, he is in danger of having those ideas pilfered.

Doing business is all about communicating. And China happens to play by its own rules in this. An authority on this subject is Marc van der Chijs. In 1999 he moved to China for Daimler Chrysler and now, eight years later, he owns two successful internet companies and is managing partner of China Bay. The secret to his success? Building relations: “Don’t send your sales manager to China with the mission to ‘come back next week with a contract’. For sure he will be back with a contract, but one which won’t be of much use.” Read the rest of “Tai Chi communication” or post a comment
