"The new China Cyber Security Law, which took effect on June 1, 2017, poses many questions and insecurities for all companies operating in China, especially for those that handle employee and customer data cross-border.
As it is customary, the law appears to be passed and in effect before the underlying implications, enforcement mechanisms and potential penalties are clear. In comparison, the EU has also passed such new law, but it will only go into effect by mid 2018.
How do local and global industry leaders view this new law? What are the expected implications in the Automotive sector? A regulation that deals with data in the whole will have an effect on all aspects of trade, be it employee data, e.g. for Chinese citizens working on international assignments, consumer data across the nation and any other data collected. The August Automotive Roundtable will serve as platform to discus all these questions.

Change is the rule of the day, especially in China, and in the coming years much more disruptive and transformational change lies ahead. Thus, leaders need to be well equipped with skills, tools and techniques helping them to orchestrate complex processes while creating the basis for a commonly shared vision, buy-in and true commitment.

Despite all the research done on change and transformations in recent decades, a large proportion of change initiatives still fail to deliver. In this 1-day workshop we focus on the key factors that often make change initiatives more challenging than expected: culture, leadership and the need for behavioral change.

This workshop is led by a course faculty with long-standing China experience helping foreign-invested companies master turnaround situations by increasing an organization’s change readiness.
