1. Fwd: Re: 'Think Like Chinese' Lecture--Wedneday 6th July (D. Wu)
--- Begin Message ---
As China increasingly impacts on the global economy, there is a growing
need for non-Chinese to get a better understanding of how Chinese think
and how they do business. Such insights can also be very beneficial for
the academic community as new research partnerships are forged with
Chinese Universites and the numbers of Chinese students studying overseas
increase.
This lecture provides some insights into how to avoid some common
misunderstandings and to improve communications. There will be plenty of
opportunity for questions and discussion.
