China's Business Complexity
If you are looking for a good pre-Olympics read, and wish to learn more about the complexity of doing business in the host country, check out The China Price: The True Cost of Chinese Competitive Advantage (Penguin Press). Alexandra Harney, a reporter for the Financial Times, takes a close look at that nation's changing manufacturing processes, and pulls no punches when it comes to measuring their lomg-term impact on shipping and sourcing. A more mobile and demanding workforce is transforming the industrial base there. Are U.S. companies prepared to be part of that social revolution? Harney hopes so.
