China Business Culture Workshop

Why do you need to attend China Cultural Workshop?

A recent survey carried out by Crayfish.io to over 100 British companies indicated that the major key risk and barrier to entering China is language and culture. Over 50% of the respondent said understanding the business culture was critical to their success thus far in China. Hence any business person looking to achieve commercial success in China would benefit from an understanding of Chinese philosophy, culture and business practices.

Some important tips to know are:

• Why and how the Chinese think and behave differently?

• Do’s and don’ts during your business trip to China?

• How to handle group meetings, conferences and 121 meetings?
