Description

Are business conflicts in China resolved in much the same way as elsewhere? Or are they handled altogether differently? Setting out in search of an answer, Jie Tang immersed herself in the day-to-day operation of a major construction project in China that brought together participants from around the globe. The result is this in-depth account of the inner workings of the Chinese business world. It demonstrates how the project progressed over time, how various conflict situations arose, and how they were handled. The book covers topics including: *differing international standards and management procedures *the peculiarities of Chinese red tape *tensions between contractors *paternalism and nepotism *local government involvement. Of interest to scholars and managers alike, this study benefits from the unparalleled access the author was able to secure to all the parties involved, Chinese and Western, commercial and governmental. Working alongside managers as a participant observer, the author uses the fine detail characteristic of ethnography to present a compelling description of managers in China today and the forces with which they have to contend.

Author Biography:

Jie Tang, a native of Shanghai, has worked as a manager in both China and England, and has taught Chinese management at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London. She is the co-author of The Changing Face of Chinese Management (Routledge, 2003) and is currently developing international programmes for London University.
