Negotiating in Asia: The Challenges of Value Creation in a Complex Environment

The project is founded on the fact that, while there is a general awareness that negotiation is crucial to effective strategy implementation, most individuals and organisations have often been unable to translate this understanding into practice. This obstacle to value creation provides a challenge to many companies operating in Asia. While recognising the political, cultural and economic diversity of the Asian region, the project aims to identify some of the common obstacles, how they might best be overcome, and which skills individuals need in order to deal with the challenges inherent in cross-cultural negotiations.
Verner Worm, ARC, and Rajesh Kumar, Aarhus Business School, are responsible for the project.

Human Resource Challenges to China’s Outward FDI Objectives

This project seeks to examine the human resource challenges associated with China’s outward foreign direct investment objectives in two important ways:
  1. By investigating the willingness of qualified talent in host countries to work for Chinese companies that seek to invest abroad
  2. By examining the attitudes of Chinese students, who have studied and/or are now working in Western European countries, about returning to work in China.
Verner Worm, Asia Research Centre, is in charge of this project in cooperation with Susan Aaagaard Petersen, Asia Research Centre, and Rosalie Tung, Simon Fraser University.

China World Project

The main focus of the ‘China in the World, the World in China’ (China World) research project is twofold:
  1. To focus on Chinese business practices among Chinese entrepreneurs in Mainland China and among Chinese business communities from around the world
  2. To focus on notions of 'Chinese-ness' and how it is spelled out in different societal settings.
The China World Network consists of cross-disciplinary international researchers from within the social sciences.

Institute, National University of Singapore and Nothingham University.
