Myths About Doing Business in China

China is rapidly becoming an economic superpower, yet has a very different business culture that is often misunderstood outside of China. This can result in costly financial and strategic errors. This book confronts the myths about China and Chinese business practice and gives the reader a clear understanding of the culture and how to engage with it successfully.

'Harold Chee, who lectures at Ashridge Management School, draws on his experience as a consultant to illustrate many of his points with pertinent anecdotes. . . the book is an excellent read and a worthy addition to the growing library of books about doing business in China.' Humphrey Keenlyside, China-Britain Trade Review
