Vliv kulturních specifik na mezinárodní obchodní jednání. Čínské obchodní jednání / The Influence of Cultural Specifics on International Business Negotiation. Chinese Business Negotiation.

Since the People's Republic of China opened its market to the rest of the world, an enormous necessity to negotiate with Chinese business partners has arisen. Businessmen from the Czech Republic as well as those from all over the world face Chinese counterparts more and more often. Business relations are becoming deeper and negotiating skills play one of the key roles in the successful process of entering the Chinese market. Good interpersonal relations with Chinese business partners seem to be of great importance for creating and maintaining long-term business relations. This work mainly focuses on fundamental cultural determinants which influence the Chinese business behaviour. The goal of this thesis is to identify the core cultural factors which might cause misunderstandings or even conflicts in cooperation within any Czech-Chinese business negotiation. Through critical interviewing existing relevant literature the author studied specifics of Chinese business behaviour and defined areas requiring further research. According to the analysis of methods being used in managerial research and the aim of the thesis the author designed her own research to explore the above mentioned areas in detail (to identify the key problematic aspects of Czech-Chinese business negotiation process). Qualitative data was collected through semi-structured interviews with Czech businessmen and analyzed by using grounded theory. The work provides models of Chinese business negotiation behaviour, points out its specifics and concludes by designing a Czech-Chinese cross-cultural training.
