Western managers conducting business in the People's Republic of China are faced with many challenges. Obstacles related to culture, education, government, World Trade Organization commitments, foreign investment strategies, supply chain management, and quality can be especially complicated and difficult for Westerners to evaluate for many reasons. Understanding these reasons and proceeding with knowledge will provide management with tools that will increase their chances for success in this blossoming economy. Understanding the philosophies and history that have shaped the Chinese business culture, the state of the educational environment, the impediments created by its communist government and fledgling judicial system, the constant and rapid change created by its WTO commitments, the variety of strategies used to invest in this enormous market, the road blocks that will be encountered in the supply chain, and how to implement safeguards to ensure quality will provide foreign investors with a competitive advantage. Organizations that apply management skills to create innovative solutions based on a thorough understanding of China's unique qualities will have a competitive advantage that can propel them ahead of their competition.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .L38 2005 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
