Event Details

A key finding from the 2025 NZBRiC Business Outlook Survey was the perceived divide between New Zealand (and global) teams and China offices within multinational organisations.


This gap often arises from limited understanding of the China market, coupled with slow responsiveness from headquarters and mismatched levels of autonomy in local operations โ€” challenges that reduce effectiveness and adaptability in China's fast-paced environment.


New Zealand businesses can perform far more effectively in China if these challenges are addressed and organisational mindsets better reflect the realities of competing in this market.


To support this shift, the New Zealand Business Roundtable in China (NZBRiC) is pleased to host an educational workshop for our members:

Building BRiCs: Bridging the Divide Between HQ and Local Operations

Led by Mark Tanner, Managing Director of China Skinny, the workshop will provide practical methodologies for bridging knowledge gaps between head office and China operations through an interactive, solutions-focused session.


Attendees will learn how to:

  • Strengthen cross-cultural collaboration in the workplace
  • Foster strategic and operational alignment
  • Reinforce brand consistency and power
  • Enhance staff loyalty and engagement
  • Improve decision-making agility, responsiveness, and adaptability


We strongly encourage broad participation across organisations to maximise both individual learning and collective value from this unique opportunity.


Don't miss this opportunity to build stronger HQโ€“China collaboration and sharpen your competitive edge.
