Business etiquette, language & culture
Business behaviour in China
China is a large country, where sub-cultures and practices differ from place to place.
Mandarin Chinese is the language of business. You should not assume Chinese firms will have English-speaking staff. A translator or interpreter is usually essential.
You should:
-
be careful with gestures as they can convey different meanings in China
-
avoid embarrassing your hosts as the Chinese do not like to say no directly
-
not be offended by personal questions relating to age, income or marital status
-
build close personal relationships to enable you to develop business partnerships
