RGIIM Shillong / Sino-Indian Global Reciprocal Advanced Management Program in collaboration with Ocean University, Qingdao, China on “Understanding China: Business and Culture” to be held at Qingdao, China, during 9-15 January, 2012.
“Understanding China: Business & Culture”
Rajiv Gandhi Indian Institute of Management Shillong is proud to announce a SEVEN days
unique program, Sino-Indian Global Reciprocal Advanced Management Program in
collaboration with Ocean University, Qingdao, China on “Understanding China: Business
and Culture” to be held at Qingdao, China, during 9-15 January, 2012.
Prelude
With every passing day, a successful manager is realizing that s/he needs to acquire newer
skills to tackle the changing environment one is operating in. Complex decision making
situations, swift technological innovations, high expectation of customer, cost competitive
products and services, shrinking profit margins and cut-throat competition are just some of the
concerns decision makers and policy makers are facing every day. To add to this, there is the
ever-widening market place – growing beyond the boundaries that were traditionally
determined.
An analysis of the competitive scenario in India in the last ten years divulges that it is now
essential for organizations to have sound strategy on competitiveness. For being competitive,
one needs to identify ones weaknesses and try to improve upon those. Benchmarking is a
well-defined tool for improving weaknesses through improvement processes in which a
company measures its performance against that of market leaders, finds how market leaders
have achieved their performance levels, and prudently uses this knowledge to improve its own
performance.
Both in terms of expanding market and benchmarking practices, China does surely ring a bell.
It is undisputedly one of the market leaders today and boasts of world’s fastest growing
economy. It has also captured a sizeable segment of various markets across the Globe. From
another point of view, it has the potential of becoming a profitable market for one’s products
and services. These are surely facts that stir one out of one’s complacency.
Why China?
China and India are both large developing countries, have over a billion people each, are
growing rapidly with competent technologies, have a potentially large emerging middle class
and yet relatively poor. Both face similar challenges as growing and developing economies. It
is therefore natural that for India, economic ties with China are growing faster than that with
any other country. The “Financial eco-system” of China comprises not only environment at the
macro level such as the legal, supervisory, regulatory, and government intervention policies,
but also micro conditions related to efficiencies of the financial institutions’ business operation.
In this view, the experiences and lessons gained by the two countries are worth understanding
and assimilating. Even for the much talked ‘Look East’ policy, China is going to be an
important factor to take into account.
Government of Meghalaya
9 – 15, January, 2012
to be held at
Qingdao China
In Association with “Understanding China: Business & Culture”
The policy makers face certain challenges in the North East towards optimal implementation of
the policy. This program could be viewed as potentially capable of dealing with problems that
decision makers are facing in this region.
A Unique initiative by IIM Shillong
This program envisages improving one’s knowledge and managerial skills by focusing on a
better understanding of China’s way of managing its businesses as it walks the road towards
becoming an economic superpower while, at the same time, addressing the challenges of
poverty alleviation and equitable wealth distribution.. This would help one to understand the
social and economic development, enterprise culture of contemporary China as well as cultural
differences between China and India.
The Program is therefore, ‘the perfect’ opportunity to come and experience this evolution and
get a better understanding of how China is managing its operations in best possible ways. In
short, this program would help one to focus on the current challenges and grab the
opportunities - not only as China opens up its markets for additional products and services,
but also to use these learning in improving one’s own efficiency, competitiveness and strategy.
About the program
This program is designed for experienced administrators, managers, decision and policy
makers as an advanced session focused on understanding the China’s business practices and
Chinese culture. It is a 5 days + 2 days (optional) series of intensive interactions among
participants, Business leaders, Academicians and Policy makers of China.
In these five intensive days, one would learn to manage performance, build teams, solve
business problems, manage conflict, overcome resistance to change and exceed customer
expectations. Having determined one’s own areas for development, this program will help one
prepare a personal action plan to benefit from China’s experience and growth story. One would
surely leave this program with new insights, techniques and strategies which are not only
enriching but practicable.

times the definition has been widened to include other sectors like marine chemistry,
