Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Zusammenfassung: Die Aufgabenstellung dieser Arbeit setzt vor dem Hintergrund der internationalen Tendenz weltweiter wirtschaftlicher Integration an und konzentriert sich auf ein spezielles Arbeitsfeld, in dem sich nationale und kulturelle Gegensätze begegnen: die chinesisch-deutschen JVs. Es wird der Versuch unternommen, sowohl die Probleme in chinesisch-deutschen JVs zu erfassen und ihre Ursachen auf den kulturellen Bereich zurückzuführen, als auch mögliche Lösungen für sie zu entwickeln. Um die Wurzeln der Managementprobleme zwischen Deutschen und Chinesen in den JVs auf die unterschiedlichen Kulturen der beiden Länder zurückführen zu können, wird im ersten Schritt der Arbeit das Fünf-Dimensionen-Modell von Hofstede vorgestellt und auf die beiden Nationen angewendet. Der Hauptschritt der Analyse basiert auf Fallstudien und einer Literaturauswertung chinesisch-deutscher JVs. Es ergeben sich wiederkehrende Problemstellungen, die zusammen mit den entsprechenden Ursachen in die fünf Managementfunktionen Planung, Organisation, Personaleinsatz, Personalführung und Kontrolle eingeordnet werden. Dabei rücken immer wieder durch kulturelle Paradigmen geprägte personale Aspekte und Probleme des Management in den Mittelpunkt, weswegen Analysen und Lösungsvorschläge zum Personalmanagement den größten Raum einnehmen. Im Rahmen dieser Lösungsvorschläge wird am Beispiel der Entwicklung eines China-Business-and-Culture-Assimilator nach Thomas gezeigt, wie man mit einem entsprechenden Trainingsprogramm deutsche Führungskräfte auf ihren Auslandseinsatz im Top-Management chinesisch-deutscher JVs wirksam vorbereiten kann.

This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: 1.1, The challenge of attracting, motivating and retaining Chinese employees: In the last decade, as a result of the advancing globalization, the People s Republic of China (PRC) has become a focus of interest for Western companies. The country is home of 25 % of the world s population and has maintained an economic growth rate of 8 % during the last twenty five years. How can companies position themselves best to profit from this fast-growing economy and prevail against an increasing competition? Along with a massive inflow of foreign investment, Western management practices and philosophies have been brought into China. Thus, every day, foreign managers in subsidiaries of Western companies have to confront decisions about money, benefits and other different forms of incentives that can be used for attracting, motivating and retaining the local Chinese employees to ensure the competitive advantages. The introduction of Western incentive systems in China can be problematic as some Western incentive practices may contradict the norms of Chinese culture and the socialist ideology. Unsurprising that issues of human resource management, particularly in the attraction of employees, the performance motivation and the staff retention, are seen as the main difficulties in the Chinese operations of Western companies. Consequently, the question arises if customary incentive practices that have been proved useful back home can be transplanted to the Chinese subsidiaries of Western companies and if so, how? It is common knowledge that the compensation packages offered by companies to their employees have a great influence on the profitability. The better the foreign managers are able to align decisions about motivational incentives with the challenges presented by the values and the motives of the employees, the likelier it is for the organization to achieve competitive advantages. Thus, especially in the international context the major limitation of contemporary pay systems is the degree to which individual attitudes and preferences are ignored. . 1.2, Conceptual design of Incentive systems for Chinese employees: Objectives and methodology of the thesis: The aim of this thesis results directly from the mentioned problem. On the basis of a literature review that is combined with an analysis of applied incentive systems, it sets out to explore why Western approaches may or may not be applicable in the Chinese context and how [...]

This book was released on 2005-01-25 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Since the reforms of 1979, the People`s Republic of China`s (PRC) economy has experienced significant growth. There is no doubt that this economic expansion has been a direct result of the opening up of Chinese companies to foreign investors. The number of sino-foreign joint-ventures, which are by the way a privileged form of investment granted by the Chinese government, has been increasing rapidly. According to Chinese statistics, at the end of 1998, Chinese-foreign joint-ventures represented approximately two thirds of about 300 000 foreign investment projects that were approved by Chinese authorities. In fact, among the developing countries, China is currently the one which attracts the most western investments. Joining the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001, China pushed this development even further and while other countries were fighting a recession at the same time, it was able to sustain a growth of 7.8% regarding the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 14.1% with respect to exports and 10.4% regarding imports. Consequently there is steady interest of foreign companies to form joint-ventures in the People's Republic of China. But whereas in the 1980ies mostly the huge corporations where entering this market, nowadays more and more midsized companies, for instance from Germany, are forming joint-ventures too. From the region Mittelfranken for example 320 businesses have developed ties with the People s Republic a plus of 60% from 1996. Many foreign firms are considering entering joint-ventures in China because this seems to offer the most attractive method for gaining access to the huge potential of the labour pool and market of China. Nonetheless, there are many warnings about the problems that have to be faced in order to establish a joint-venture in China. Chief among these is the problem of differing management styles between Foreign and Chinese partners. Very little accurate information is available about Sino-Foreign joint-ventures. An example is the wide disparity in the reports of the numbers of Sino-German joint-ventures. It is not surprising, therefore, that the majority of research studies have focused on identifying the number and the internal structures of these joint-ventures rather than on the practical problems of managing these businesses effectively. Beyond problems of identifying active ventures, research on Chinese-German joint-ventures is hampered by other difficulties: collecting data that [...]

Book excerpt: Despite the dynamic growth of its economy over the last 20 years, China still has a long way to go to catch up with Japan. In commercial and technological terms, Japan is still the dominant economy in East Asia and is still the leading source of product, production and management innovations in the region, especially in the automotive and electronic industries. However, China is closing the gap year by year. The development of bilateral foreign trade, the increase of Japanese FDI and ODA towards China, and intensified financial and technical co-operation illustrate the considerable potential for mutually profitable business. The Chinese market is opening up and Chinese products are increasingly gaining competitiveness in world markets, threatening the incumbent Japanese firms. Japanese and Chinese companies face each other across a changing competitive environment, which is posing new challenges to corporate and business strategies. Within the context of these developments this book looks from different perspectives at how Japanese companies are reacting to the challenges and opportunities offered by China.

This book was released on 2008-03-29 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China is certainly doing its best to keep the world mesmerized by its e- nomic achievements. The Chinese economic growth story that begun 30 years ago has in terms of dynamics and duration long since surpassed all those “economic miracles” which have brought Germany, Japan, and the South East Asian Tigers into the top–league of the industrialized world. The rapid expansion of the Chinese economy has gone along with a fu- fledged re-integration of China into the global economic system. In the course of the last 30 years China has become a major player in the global economy and today is on a trajectory towards even greater prominence. In recent years, the Chinese economy seems to have reached an imp- tant threshold line of economic development and global integration. In the first quarter century of reform and global opening, Chinese enterprises have been largely confined to a ‘passive’ role in the global division of - bor. Foreign enterprises as the proprietors of greatly superior business models, production technologies, management models as well as very competitively established brands have been integrating Chinese players in their value chains and global operations. Lacking the necessary production technologies, products as well as marketing knowledge to successfully - dress OECD-consumers, Chinese enterprises have been hardly able to - ter the global markets without such guidance. Now, this constellation is changing.
Download or read book Trust in German Chinese Business Cooperation written by Edgar Klinger and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-06-17 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes international joint ventures successful? Among other key success factors such as strategic fit, material and political-relational incentives, and the cultural compatibility of the joint venture partners, the role of one factor in the successful establishment and management of joint ventures is critical: the mutual trust among the managers involved. This book explores how to establish, develop, and continue to nurture mutual trust between the managers of German and Chinese joint ventures. A series of guided interviews conducted by the authors reveals assessments of Chinese and European executives about their mutual trust in the context of the cultural differences between the two countries, the worldviews characterizing China and Germany, and their impact on the behavior of their executives. The authors then use these judgements from the interviews to make recommendations for action to build more successful cooperation in German-Chinese business cooperation in future joint enterprises. Trust in German-Chinese Business Cooperation is essential reading for managers of international companies and students of business management, business psychology and intercultural management.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seit China 1978 seine M rkte f r ausl ndische Unternehmen ge ffnet und sich zu einem zentralen Wachstumsmarkt im asiatischen Raum entwickelt hat, ist dort ein regelrechter Wirtschaftsboom zu beobachten. Um sich auf dem chinesischen Markt zu etablieren, w hlen viele deutsche Unternehmen die Kooperationsform "JointVenture." F r den Erfolg solch deutsch-chinesischer Joint Ventures spielen neben den konjunkturellen und rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen die soziokulturellen Faktoren f r die Interaktionen des Managements mit dem chinesischen Umfeld eine entscheidende Rolle. Dabei zeigt sich, dass kulturelle Differenzen speziell vor und w hrend der Verhandlungsgespr che h ufig zu Managementproblemen f hren. Solche Probleme tragen nicht selten sogar zum Scheitern von Joint-Venture-Beziehungen bei, so dass der Bereich "Interkulturelles Management" zunehmend in den Blickpunkt westlicher Unternehmen r ckt. F r westliche Unternehmer, die im asiatischen Raum und speziell in China Gesch ftsbeziehungen aufbauen wollen, ist die Auseinandersetzung mit der Frage unerl sslich, welche Kenntnisse und Charaktereigenschaften ihre Auslandsmitarbeiter haben m ssen und welche M glichkeiten bestehen, sich solche Kompetenzen anzueignen. Diese Studie gibt einen umfassenden berblick, was interkulturelles Management bezogen auf deutsch-chinesische Joint Ventures bedeutet und wie es helfen kann, die mit den soziokulturell bedingten Unterschieden verbundenen Probleme zu minimieren.

Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: The aim of this Masters thesis is to explain Chinese business culture. In order to understand why Chinese business culture is different from European or American business culture, for example, it is necessary to know the roots of Chinese cultural values: what is the specific Chinese context which made it possible that China bore its unique business culture? Which specific values are valid in China today? How do they influence Chinese business conduct? This Master s thesis explains the development and constitution of Chinese business culture. Furthermore, with reference to the latest literature about the topic and additional field research in a private company in China, this Masters thesis reveals recent changes in Chinese business cultural values. Because business culture is influenced by variables such as globalisation or the political system, it represents a dynamic value system over the long term. Thus, this Masters thesis updates academic knowledge about this topic. Moreover, it addresses questions that have been raised by academic authors. Whenever I found a remark in literature which raised up an interesting issue for further research, I noted the hint down and included it into my survey. Thereby, I try to add new perspectives to the topic of Chinese business culture. In total, this Masters thesis should therefore be a useful and topical guide to Chinese business culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the level of globalization in business relationships rises, the importance of questions and problems pertaining to intercultural communication increases more and more. This gives rise to new tasks for the social sciences, which can only be successfully performed through interdisciplinary cooperation in the sense of area-studies. Between 1995 and 2002 for area, the Bavarian research network for area-studies, drew together numerous members of the scientific community who are specialized in the social sciences to pursue previously unresearched topics in areas of overlap of business and culture as exemplified in non-European regions. The most important results are collated here.
