THE CHINA FACTOR BOOK
THE CHINA FACTOR: Leveraging Emerging Business Strategies to Compete, Grow & Win in the New Global Economy
Based on Karam's experience competing with Huawei at Cisco, where she led a competitive intelligence and global sales support program, The China Factor is a guide for companies to understand how the Chinese do business and equips Western companies with strategies to successfully compete in today's rapidly changing global markets. It also provides new innovation models to serve emerging markets and to protect and evolve the West’s innovation advantage.

“The China Factor is right on the mark. It addresses a real need, one that very few others are tackling - the action that US and other Western–based companies can take in response to the China challenge.
Global competitiveness is a huge problem for the West and companies are ill–prepared.
The China Factor goes beyond what other books do, providing an important, insightful, and practical prescription on how companies can shift their strategy…”
– KEN WILCOX, Chairman, Silicon Valley Bank
