Culture And Business In Asia

Culture and Business in Asia describes and examines the links between culture and business in several Asian countries, primarily China and India, but also Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Instead of treating Asia as a unit, the author builds an accurate account of real business in distinct regions. Culture and Business in Asia is an analytical, comparative guide to modern Asian business. Using in-depth interviews, it describes the links between culture and business in India, China (including Hong Kong), Japan, Taiwan and Singapore. Each chapter examines the influence of business culture on decision-making in the areas of ownership, finance, governance, organisation, management and strategy. Key benefits: • Gives a vivid view of how Asian business decision-makers experience the world of work • Includes a unique focus on India • Encourages critical thinking • Examines the relationship of social, political and economic cultures to business. • Provides a cultural platform for business in the profitable but competitive markets of Asia.
