Understand East-West power dynamics, a course by David Kang.

About
When western companies fail in East Asia, it’s almost always for the same reason: impatience. According to David Kang, to avoid this fate, businesses need to play the long game, patiently gathering local knowledge to navigate the complexities of East Asian markets. A Eurocentric focus puts us at a disadvantage in making policy towards Asia.
