A Presentation by David Everhart, Managing Director,
Asia Leadership Development Solutions
According to Everhart, a leading U.S.-East Asian-relations expert, one of the biggest obstacles Western companies face in China is a lack of the proper organizational structure and leadership skills. He identifies four specific issues that multinational firms face in China: 1. High turnover rates that impede the development of a strong corporate culture. 2. Expatriate executives who don't know how to lead a Chinese workforce. 3. Locally-hired Chinese leaders who lack the international experience and language skills to interact effectively with global headquarters in the U.S. or elsewhere. 4. A Chinese management team that doesn't understand how to work within a 'matrixed' global organization. To meet these challenges, Everhart discusses the leadership styles that are most effective in China’s fast-growing environment. He presents recent data related to Chinese leadership styles and discusses the practical applications for talent management. The presentation also covers the selection of expatriate managers, recruiting expatriates to lead in China, and the challenge of retaining Chinese talent.
