- Inhaltsangabe:Abstract:This thesis gives an overview of Project Management in the People?s Republic of China (PRC), with regard to soft skills as success factors. The reason for writing my thesis in China was to experience the effects of globalisation with a practical orientation. China seemed to me the most interesting and challenging country for the assignment. To learn more about the success factors which are essential for the collaboration with the Chinese was a further motivation for me to write this work in China. During my assignment I learned that soft factors and social competence are key requirements to be accepted and successful in daily business. The intercultural difference and the social behaviour of the Chinese are very different from what Westerners are used to at home. To handle these differences, soft skills become essential for successful collaboration.After introducing the background knowledge of Project Management in China, several situations which require soft skills are addressed and discussed. Not only ways to improve our own soft skills are stated but also ways to recognise and react to certain situations in the dialogue with others. The role of soft skills is extremely important in modern-day business life and in all divisions of a company. With the following work I want to arouse the reader?s interest and awareness of soft factors in business and convince him of the importance of such a fundamental topic.Annotation: This work is written in British English with the exception of original quotations. Please note that ?he?, ?his? etc. refer to both genders.Inhaltsverzeichnis:Table of Contents:ABSTRACTIIACKNOWLEDGEMENTSIIITABLE OF CONTENTSIVLIST OF FIGURESVILIST OF TABLESVIIABBREVIATIONSVIII1.INTRODUCTION11.1PROBLEM STATEMENT - CHANGING CHALLENGES ABROAD11.2PROPOSED SOLUTION - SOCIAL AND PERSONAL SKILLS FOR PROJECT SUCCESS21.3OBJECTIVE AND APPROACH OF THIS STUDY32.PROJECT MANAGEMENT IN CHINA42.1BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT CHINA42.1.1General overview42.1.2Aspects of culture and mentality of the Chinese people42.1.3Facts and figures about China72.1.4China's construction business102.1.5Environmental problems in China122.2IMPORTANT CONCEPTS OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT142.3THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT MANAGEMENT ENVIRONMENT152.4THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT (MANAGEMENT) PROCESS172.5THE COMPETING OBJECTIVES OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT182.5.1Project Quality Management182.5.2Project Cost []
