There's a whole new world waiting to be explored.  Be a part of it. Join in the Chinese Business Revolution, with It's All Chinese.

Cultural Coaching

You know that China could be important for your business; perhaps you have already begun to tap into the huge Chinese market.  You might already understand that doing successful business with the Chinese begins with respect and understanding of their culture, and is boosted further through meeting them halfway on the language front.

However, if your needs are too urgent to be met by long-term language training, the quickest way to boost your status and increase your chances in the Chinese world might be through one of our cultural seminars:

It's All Chinese provides short-term cultural coaching sessions for small or large groups; sharing our knowledge of Chinese culture and revealing the mindset, actions and words that will raise your Chinese game. 

We explain the inextricably interlinked cornerstones of Chinese culture that pervade its business culture more than most Westerners would ever imagine:

Relationships   关系      Harmony        融洽       'Face'            面子

Then we help you understand the reasons for these deeply rooted cultural norms, and transfer this understanding to the situations your company will encounter.  We show you how to make a good impression; how to avoid the usual pitfalls; how to understand what your client means, wants and expects.

Cultural understanding is crucial when dealing with China - a civilisation that has spent thousands of years dealing with business in very different ways to those favoured in the West!  In a confusing merging of cultures, It's All Chinese provides an indispensible guide to being a success in the Chinese market.

 

Interpreting Service

For other business needs, It's All Chinese can provide a freelance English interpreter fluent in Mandarin Chinese, to represent your company in meetings, negotiations, and host situations.  A Mandarin speaker to meet Chinese clients at the airport or show them the sights of Manchester might be just the right 'first impression' your company needs.

From the Chinese point of view, having a Mandarin speaking representative reflects well on a company and enhances the relationship by demonstrating respect and a desire for balance in the partnership. 

A Mandarin-speaking Western face is, furthermore, an incredibly unique and memorable feature of any company, and creates a positive impression that will stay with your Chinese visitors long after they return home.

 

Any of the services that we offer at It's All Chinese can be adapted to suit your particular needs, and we positively encourage this!  So whether it's help with a one-off email or phone call; assistance with pre-China trip briefing; or even an old China hand to accompany you on your trip; we hope you'll think of us.
