The fast and vigorous development of Chinese economy in the recent three decades has created immense opportunities for Chinese females to demonstrate their talents. More and more females begin to appear on the list of the riches conducted by various institutions. We can also find more Chinese female executives from many multinational enterprises. In the further course of globalization, Chinese females are facing a wider global stage. How should they seize the coming opportunities and take the challenges? Do they have to sacrifice more in order to show their special charms on the international stage? Are they able to keep balance among health, career and family? We hope you may find answers in this forum!

This Forum will focus on the important role of Chinese Women in global economy and discuss following topics with all attendees:
l The Role of Chinese Females in Global Economy
l From Cinderella to CEO – The Choices and Changes of Females’ Growth
l Over the Rainbow – How to Work with Supervisors with Different Cultural Backgrounds
l Females at the Age of 30, 40 and 50
