China: Mission Impossible?

Written in a conversational, and often humorous tone, the Beijing-based author draws on over 20 years of business consulting, much of it in China, to offer practical advice on bridging the cultural gap in the quest to do business in one of the largest markets in the world.

Invaluable insight into protocol (business and otherwise), negotiations, gaining approvals, due diligence, partnerships and the bureaucracy are teamed up with helpful appendices on essential contacts at recognized business organizations and some handy Chinese phrases.

Lauded as a "must read" by the Canadian Ambassador, it has been endorsed by foreign embassies (Cyprus, Finland, Iceland, Britain) and such stellar companies as BMW, DaimlerChrysler and the Holiday Inn in Beijing.
