The make-up of Greater China’s professional community is changing. Expatriated, non-Asian executives sent from U.S. home offices are no longer an attractive solution for expanding multinational companies, given their exorbitantly high expense, lack of local experience and skills, and limited commitment to the region. Increasingly, it is the faces of Chinese Americans (American-born Chinese and Asian-born returnees) who are making up the new foreign presence of professionals and managers in the region.
Larry Wang, Managing Director of leading international recruiting firm, Wang & Li Asia Resources, has written The New Gold Mountain, telling the exciting story of the growingpresence and success in Greater China of Chinese Americans, who respond to |
| the increased demand for bilingual and bicultural, western-trained professionals. The book describes the experiences of new newcomers and old hands, native Chinese speakers and intrepid language students, entry-level professionals and managing directors, corporate climbers and entrepreneurs. It provides a first-hand look at the road many Chinese Americans have taken to make it out and reveals their motivations for relocating to Greater China, the lifestyle adjustments they make, the opportunities they are presented with, and the outstanding success they are achieving. Through the many examples shared, The New Gold Mountain contains the best information available on how to find a job and develop career opportunities in the region, as well as what it’s like to relocate to the region. The book also includes successful job search strategies, industry trends and career tracks, and candidate profiles sought by multination.
In the past, Chinese people crossing the Pacific saw America as The Gold Mountain. Today, many are heading in the reverse direction, to a place where personal fulfillment and professional rewards are being readily attained. That place is Greater China, The New Gold Mountain for Chinese Americans. For anyone considering a move to the region, or who is just interested in knowing more about its emerging Chinese American community, The New Gold Mountain will entertain and enlighten.
