The customs, hierarchy, and unspoken rules of doing business with Chinese-speaking partners — greetings, business cards, gift-giving, dining, and how "face" shapes negotiation — plus the vocabulary to navigate it.
Fluency alone doesn't prevent an accidental insult. This course covers the customs that actually matter in a real Chinese business relationship: how to exchange a business card properly, why some gifts are genuinely offensive, how seating order at a meeting signals hierarchy, and why a Chinese counterpart may say "maybe" when they mean "no." Each level pairs the cultural context with the real vocabulary to use it.
