CUHK Business – January 2023
After a tumultuous period, business is returning to normal around the world. What do companies and businesses leaders need to be aware of as they seek to reconnect to customers and suppliers? Learn insights from the latest issue of CUHK Business magazine.
Entrepreneurship
A recent study of Chinese entrepreneurs identifies the strategies that are required for success at different stages of a country’s transition to a market economy.
Globalisation
Study finds that companies with more geographically diverse operations outperformed during the peak of the outbreak.
Social Responsibility
Research shows that firms which align their philanthropy efforts with the values of workers may benefit from lower turnover.
Marketing
CUHK research finds that housing price appreciation leads to higher online consumption, less payment hesitation, less order returns and more online shopping activity during work hours.
Many people’s impression of accounting work is that it is “all about the numbers”. Loretta Fong (PACC 1993) has a different take on the entire matter: “Numbers are merely health indexes. What accountants truly need to do is to feel the pulse of a business.”
Student Story
Doctors’ careers are typically straightforward. That is not the case for Dr. Justin Wu (EMBA Year 2). Chance and circumstances, as well as his openness to change led him down a different path and into a bigger world.
Faculty Story
A frequent recipient of teaching awards, Dr. Andrew Yuen is highly focused on preparing students for the future. He works tirelessly to instil within them not only the knowledge they need but also the ability to grow continually through time.
Alumni Whereabouts
In China’s rising economic powerhouse, the Greater Bay Area (GBA), CUHK Business School alumni are poised to capitalise on the business potential in the region and forge ahead with their entrepreneurial passion.
