Abstract

China was weeks ahead of the rest of the world in dealing with the pandemic and its fallout. To understand what's next, the authors conducted a series of 20 in-depth, in-person interviews, as well as a large-scale survey of more than 350 senior executives to ascertain how the Chinese corporate world has adapted, innovated, and survived—and even thrived—in these extremely uncertain and trying times. They identified 11 lessons for leaders in the rest of the world.

Keywords
