Metacommunication Effects on International Business Negotiating in China

Jeanette W. Gilsdorf

California State University, Long Beach

Unless perceived and understood, profound differences in atti tudes, expectations, and unworded messages will frustrate businesspeople's efforts to do business with China, a huge and developing market.
