Today was the first day of class with a Chinese professor. The professor's name was Dr. Will. He talked to us about how some businesses have failed because of implementing a culture into a different country and their culture. For an example in a Chinese business if someone is doing something wrong the manager will bring the person in front of the entire group and point out the things this employee did and everyone should not do what this employee did. A Chinese business tried implementing this philosophy into an American culture and it failed horribly. The Chinese business had to restructure their management to fit the American culture. We also learned about the top management in China. If there is a male CEO he usually picks a female to also be upper management. The male acts as a father of the company and the female acts as the mother of the company. Today we also toured dynasty winery. The winery was a great experience. We got to see the where the wine entered the bottles and where the barrels were stored to age the wine. All in all another great day in China can't wait till tomorrow.
