Enhance Intercultural Collaboration to unlock your business potential

Intercultural Collaboration Framework 

Fostering Productive Partnerships with Chinese partners and Teams

Are you working with Chinese teams and seeking a deeper understanding of their culture, mindset, and perspectives? Do you face challenges in motivating and engaging your Chinese teams to actively contribute their ideas for enhancing various aspects of your business operations, such as marketing, sales, and manufacturing?

I employ the “Engage, Enable, Empower” approach to enhance your intercultural collaboration. Through fostering connections among intercultural teams, I engage all participants to openly share their feelings, thoughts, and ideas. Leveraging this valuable information, I assist you in developing actionable and consensus-based strategic plans and frameworks that enable your teams to take ownership and concrete actions. Throughout the entire process, my priority is to ensure that every team member feels seen, heard, and valued, empowering them to actively contribute to taking your business and operations to the next level.

From My Customers

China is a strategic market for us and we wanted to improve our visibility in China. However, it was a challenge to enthuse colleagues in China from our Dutch headquarters to provide input for marketing content. Mei has formed the perfect bridge between the Netherlands and China. She helped us motivate Chinese colleagues and set up a strategic content framework.

In addition to her kindness, thoroughness, and commitment, Mei is a connector at heart.

We wanted to build a good marketing system in China. Mei collected market information by meeting the sales teams from every business unit. She helped us to clearly define our marketing content and build the framework. Her effort enabled us to effectively carry out the subsequent marketing promotion plans.

Mei is sincere, professional, and devoted. She is very good at motivating others, and we all learned a lot from her.

Intercultural Collaboration Workshops

Bridging Cultural Differences for Effective Collaboration

What are the cultural differences between Chinese culture and Western culture and how to bridge these differences? How to enhance communication, cooperation, and trust with the Chinese partners or teams? These are the common challenges faced by my clients and their teams. Discovering answers to these questions can propel your business and operations to new heights.

China Project Management

Unlock Business Potential with Successful Projects

The cooperation contract with your new Chinese business partner has been signed. However, this is often where the real challenge begins. How do you handle project financing and payment arrangements? If your project receives government subsidies, what are the necessary requirements and procedures set by the Chinese government before, during, and after the project? How do you establish a robust project plan that provides clear insights into every step and outcome? And how do you effectively address disagreements during the plan’s creation and execution? How to unlock your business potential with successful projects?

I specialize in guiding companies through each of these steps, ensuring that the project moves in the right direction. Working closely with all involved parties, I assist in defining common ambitions, goals, desired outcomes, and approaches. A well-defined roadmap not only saves valuable time and resources but also establishes a strong foundation for long-term cooperation and success.

From My Customers

Mei is an excellent business connector. She feels the mutual goals clearly and knows how to strengthen relationships during conversations.

Mei helped us to build up a huge network of business partners in China and expanded this network in a short time. She is an excellent partner for any company that wants to do business or expand in China.
