In December 2011 Palgrave Macmillan published a book by EBS professors Ruth Alas and Junhong Gao on theoretical framework on how to manage crises in Chinese organizations.
The authors connect crisis management theories with practical examples from Chinese companies to help deepen the understanding of Chinese work culture and practices.
The authors believe that this volume may contribute to better crisis management not only in Chinese organizations, but also in organizations from other countries. Learning from mistakes and from the positive solutions to such situations could be the key to future success. Improvement in the management of critical situations in organizations could lead to improvements in the economy as a whole.
