{"product_id":"9789814338561","title":"How To Manage A Successful Business In China","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis unique book discusses how to manage an organization in China. It is based on the invaluable practical experience of entrepreneur Johan Björkstén, who successfully built a local consulting business with over 100 employees, and Anders Hägglund, a seasoned manager who set up high-growth and highly profitable operations in China for a major industrial multinational. The book provides widely applicable advice based on experiences from different industries, including but not limited to those of the authors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost books about business in China belong to one of two categories: autobiographical “success stories” or academic treatises. Managing in China goes beyond these genres to provide highly relevant, practical advice and checklists, as well as concrete and illustrative examples from the authors' own experience. Managing in China succinctly explains how historical, cultural and social factors influence today's Chinese business environment, and how managers should take this into account in day-to-day operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book focuses on managing in a rapid-growth environment, but also provides advice on how to ensure sustainable operations and profitability in mature industries or a temporary downturn.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction: Why We Wrote This Book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChinese Business Climate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifferences and Similarities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKey Concepts of Chinese Business Culture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Language Challenge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQualities of the Right Expatriate Manager\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompany Setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Winning Local Team\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Right Corporate Culture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight Business Focus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport Your Frontline Sales Organization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarketing to China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuccessful Execution Demands Top Management Attention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Academics, students, general readers interested in China studies, China's economy, business and management and entrepreneurship.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185282498800,"sku":"9789814338561","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814338561_p0.jpg?v=1763690830","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814338561","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
