WOODRIDGE, Ill., Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- GMAC Global Relocation Services

Titled, "Building Relationships with Chinese Through Effective
Communications," the Webinar will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 11, at 11 a.m.

The one-hour Webinar will examine the cultural attributes of China and
Chinese in the workplace. The Webinar also will explore the challenges
expatriates may face when assimilating to life in China beyond its major

The session will provide practical cultural information to meet the
business needs of companies and individuals and will analyze the following
issues and topics:
-- Introduce common stereotypes and perceptions Chinese nationals have of
expatriates

"do's and taboos"
-- Discuss Chinese psycho-cultural differences such as character traits,
core country values, behaviors, attitudes and ways of viewing the world
-- Provide a framework for comparing and contrasting Chinese culture with
your own culture along ten researched-validated dimensions that will enable
participants to identify and resolve challenges in their own communications
-- Suggest communication strategies for bridging cultural differences
between personal, national and the target cultures
