China
The world’s most populous country, the People’s Republic of China is currently in a period of balancing unprecedented economic growth with demographic and environmental transitions.

Especially for managers of multinational organizations, China represents an emerging consumer base and potentially the beginning of long-term shifts in global manufacturing and consumption. However, for many executives, the intricate interplay of politics, a nascent capitalist economy, and the language present complex challenges.
