Brought to you by www.chinadvisors.com Dr Helen Zhang from Cambridge UK and Darren Fooks from Thomson Geer Lawyers Australia ...

Throughout the full array of Chinese teachings, from nursery rhymes taught as part of the formal mainland education system through to specific strategies in China Business Development plannings and execution, Mianzi is shown to be essential to success with the Chinese mind. A definition of Mianzi is "How one creates, earns and maintains the position where others want to do business with us."

Other descriptions are "Men can’t live without Face, trees can’t live without bark” and “Someone would rather die than lose Mianzi”.

This week we will investigate Mianzi through examples and stories as well as giving you the pragmatic basics of this all intrusive concept.

Happy listening Podcats!
