Synopsis

From the do s and don ts of meeting a Chinese government official to the applications of Sun Tzu s Art of War, When Yes Means No! (or yes or maybe) is a road map for the Westerner navigating the often frustrating, elusive world of Chinese trade negotiations. The book is organized around thirty-six sayings that encapsulate ancient Chinese strategies. It also includes anecdotes that will entertain, instruct, and provide hope to Westerners engaged in the long and drawn-out process of negotiating a deal in China. Author Lawrence J. Brahm dispenses the same insights he provides to Fortune 500 companies looking to access the great economic power of China and includes a useful glossary and appendix.
