That Guy From China

“The China Challenge” is a monthly seminar that I am running, at which I explain to participants some of the most frequent problems that Canadians will face in doing business in China; what the root causes are; and how best they can prepare themselves for those situations.  It is very practical, with role plays and case studies based on real situations. The purpose is not just to give you head knowledge, but to develop practical skills — to both be able to identify the causes of cultural conflict, and to find effective solutions.

The seminar is a half day seminar, usually from 1:00-5:30.  The location may vary, but usually is held at UBC Robson Square in downtown Vancouver.  The seminar is followed by an optional Chinese dinner, at which I will explain many of the intricacies of eating and drinking at a Chinese business banquet.  This portion is very lively and fun for everyone involved, as well as being very important (since the odds are that a great deal of your business dealings with Chinese will take place around the dinner table).
