The European Chamber is pleased to invite you to our upcoming HR Forum meeting at Sheraton in Wuxi on Wednesday 24th April 2013 16:00 pm.
Background
Since performance management and the culture of organizations highly interact with each other people's behaviors often determine the success of performance management systems. With an expert who is experienced in successfully implementing KPIs in a local Chinese Business Unit, we will share our experience and discuss solutions and best practices to successfully implement KPIs in the context of China: What does implementing KPIs in China mean to foreign and local managers? What do the Chinese culture and the expectations from Chinese employees tell us about what we should do to implement KPIs in the right way? Changing employees’ mindset on KPIs. Applying international standards and frameworks in the context of China. Coaching employees to design KPIs 'interactively'.
Speaker
The Machwürth Team International (MTI) Consultant Jean-Yves Le Corre is a performance and risk management expert who has worked and lived in China for seven years, assisting executives implementing effective performance management, control and risk management systems in organizations. Previously, he had served in several multinational firms, mainly in audit, finance and management consulting. His research and publications aim to better understand how to adapt Western management practices in Asian cultures. He is a strong proponent of the concept of 'management localization', whose principle is that Western practices are generally ineffective in view of the significant cultural differences, forcing executives and managers to constantly 'rethink' and adapt management methods and 'styles' in China.
