"Challenges and opportunities are an integral part of today’s international trade environment. Not only do we have to secure the trade supply chain but we also have to facilitate the movement of legitimate goods across borders. For those of us involved in this form of economic activity, whether we are from the public or private sector, it is vital that we recognize the importance of international trade to the economic prosperity of the world’s nations. Its catalytic role in alleviating poverty, enhancing financial stability, and promoting social well-being can never be under-estimated. As the author of this book, Tom Travis, so rightly says, we are all actively involved in global trade as we go about our daily lives whether we consciously know this or not. Globalization too is part and parcel of the international trade landscape and it is imperative that one learns to navigate this terrain if one wants to succeed in the business environment of the 21st century. This is exactly what this book sets out to do. It provides the reader with six tenets of global trade backed by clear explanations as to how they should be applied in real-world situations involving a wide range of role-players. The book is an indispensable guide to trans-national economic operators, global business leaders and others who are part of the international customs and trade community as it provides an arsenal of tools that will enrich the quality of doing business globally. From taking advantage of trade agreements, to protecting your brand at all costs, to maintaining high ethical standards, Tom Travis' incredible understanding of the business world and the issues that impact on the trade environment make him the ultimate business coach. Indeed, the book captures the essential ingredients that are necessary to make today’s business men and women excel and win. This essential guide is a global winner and I highly recommend it for its insight and value-added leadership." --Michel Danet, Secretary General, World Customs Organization "With his Six Tenets of Global Trade, author Tom Travis will help CEOs everywhere get it right when it comes to global trade. He lays out the most important aspects of trade that businesspeople—especially those of us in the apparel industry - need to know in order to be successful. It's not easy to manage the numerous elements involved in forging trust-based and profitable trade relationships - relationships that benefit everyone involved. This incisive book helps businesspeople achieve just that. His lessons on branding and social responsibility in particular are hugely valuable for anyone just entering the worldwide trade arena. And even if you've been around the global block a few times, you'll learn something new and thought provoking. Travis's book is an essential read for anyone expanding their horizons globally. " --Scott A. Edmonds, President & Chief Executive Officer, Chico's FAS, Inc. "This book overflows with many valuable lessons for anyone who wants a better understanding of how global trade is shaping our world. It's a delightful surprise to find a business book that takes such a comprehensive look at global trade. Tom Travis's examples and tenets show that for global trade to truly be positive it must create sustainability in all of the areas involved." --Pietra Rivoli, Author of The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy: An Economist Examines the Markets, Power, and Politics of World Trade

Download or read book Doing Business in Germany written by Andra Riemhofer and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2019-03-20 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of the book is to help readers understand how certain concepts and values influence the way Germans like to do business. Germany is the strongest economy in Europe, and one of the largest worldwide. The business climate is good, people are highly skilled, and consumers have plenty of spending money in their pockets; for companies that are doing business internationally, Germany is a market that simply cannot be overlooked. However, many business relationships with Germans come to an end even before they begin; intercultural differences very often result in misunderstandings, frustration, and an unnecessary loss of time and money. Especially with Germans, even small things can be crucial when you are speaking to a (potential) business contact. This book aims at helping students and professionals avoid the common pitfalls that international business people typically step into when dealing with Germans for the very first time. Unlike with the other business- or text-books focusing on culture, this book will do more than just arm you with some simple “Dos and Don’ts;” it will provide interesting and easy-to- understand descriptions and anecdotes that highlight the cultural standards and dimensions that are (typically) theoretically discussed in scientific texts. Essentially, while talking about what makes “the average” German tick, readers will be equipped with the relevant background knowledge. The focus of the book is to help readers understand how certain concepts and values influence the way Germans like to do business. It will guide them on how to successfully interact with Germans, whether at trade shows, during virtual and face-to-face meetings, or when they are negotiating their first contract.

Download or read book Doing Business in China written by Christopher Torrens and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2010-07-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China has a long history of confounding multinational companies. Many firms' strategies for China have failed and companies have been forced to revise plans to take into account the idosyncrasies of the Chinese market. This book examines the strategies that have succeeded and those that have failed, with chapters on the political and economic context, how to assess the market and manage corporate expectations and structures, how to negotiate legal and tax issues, manufacturing and distribution, making acquisitions, dealing with corruption and financial crime, attracting and retaining talent, the importance of establishing and maintaining relationships (guanxi), corporate governance and social responsibility, and the China of the future. With many businesses experiencing sluggish growth or even decline in their traditional markets, China seems to offer the chance of heady growth. For those who get their approach right it does, but there are many obstacles to be negotiated on the road to success. This book explores the difficulties of doing business in China and how to take best advantage of the opportunities that exist to achieve the level of success that every business aims for in China but not that many achieve. "The opportunities for those doing business in or with China may be growing but so are the challenges. This highly readable book, with its dozens of anecdotes of success and failure in the China market, highlights the key issues facing investors and how to deal with them."—Tim Clissold, CEO, Peony Capital and author of Mr. China "Sensible, informed and up-to-date information and advice on operating in China comes along surprisingly rarely. This book is a welcome antidote to the extremes of bullish hype and bearish despair that is typical of commentators on this huge market."—Stephen Green, Head of Research Greater China, Standard Chartered
