This collection provides a multi-level reality check on the Chinese economy, firm performance, and managerial ties. It proposes two questions: can China restructure its economy from a low-cost growth model to a high value-added innovative model, and can Chinese firms outperform competitors in global high-value markets without relying on state initiatives, central funding mechanisms, and public R\u0026amp;D institutions? \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 166 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 September 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taylor \u0026amp; Francis Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn numerous countries, business practitioners, policymakers, pundits, and the general public are intrigued by the question of China's true strength in business. In the past century, the prevailing sentiment in business commentary on China was characterized by exuberance and praise. However, despite impressive economic performance and seemingly unstoppable growth, certain global data, particularly in areas like labor productivity and digital competitiveness, presents a different and more nuanced perspective.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo provide a comprehensive examination of the Chinese economy, firm performance, and managerial connections, this collection offers a multi-faceted reality check. Given China's urgent need to transition its economy and business to attract global talent and create high-end technologies for groundbreaking products and services, this book raises two critical questions. Firstly, can China transition from a low-cost growth model to a high-value-added innovative model without experiencing significant structural inertia? Secondly, can Chinese firms surpass competitors in global high-value markets without relying on state initiatives, central funding mechanisms, and public R\u0026amp;D institutions?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book was originally published as a special issue of the journal, Asia Pacific Business Review.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 174 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032107561\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44646904398074,"sku":"9781032107561","price":43.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697219078629_book.jpg?v=1697576689","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/corporate-performance-and-managerial-ties-in-china-key-theories-dimensions-and-directions-9781032107561","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
