Chinese Cultural Dichotomy of NEGOTIATIONS

China Myth Podcast

March 8, 2023 HIGHLIGHT REELS - Chinese Cultural dichotomies with the West categorize value differences likely to cause frustration and conflict and redirect opportunities for cooperation toward unintended disorder, confusion, and chaos.

Everything in business involves negotiation in one form or another. Yet, this activity with counterparts in China often leads to promising outcomes that turn sour or a long- drawn-out process that dampens the initial excitement and optimism of cooperating.

Most of the role playing and interactive portions have been removed to highlight the concepts covered during the first portion of this experience.
