Smarter Manufacturing in China to Make Room for Services Sector
10/30/2010
- David Wolf has been based in Beijing for twenty years, and founded a consulting practice, Wolf Group Asia, in 2005. He has seen a very noticeable shift in China's manufacturing strategy. Once known as the "world's manufacturing floor," China will soon be seen as leading the services sector. Since opening to the west in the 1980s, the Chinese have been studying and learning from multinational organizations, and services are no exceptions.
Industries like hospitality, aviation, and banking are now importing skills learned in China back into the US to improve American business services providers; China has a huge possibility to lead the field of back office and customer service for greater Asia. In order to stay competitive, companies in the US must adapt, and raise their standards. Companies from both countries must learn to work together and form partnerships to expand and succeed globally.
David Wolf’s broad range of government relations, strategic counsel, and market-entry management experience throughout Greater China and Asia supports his consultancy Wolf Group Asia, and his blogging and writing career. >>Find out more on David's profile>>
