About the Book Caught Between the Tiger and the Dragon
Author Jim Tompkins describes Rich as "really a nice guy. He is a good guy, he’s a hardworking guy, he’s a family guy. He plays fair. He really, really wants to be successful, not only for himself, but also for his private equity investors as well as for his employees. Rich becomes the CEO of a lingerie company, a company he worked at for many years. This is really a challenge for him, because he wants to do what’s right for the private equity firm. He knows what he needs to do with respect to China. He really wants to take care of his employees." From North Carolina to New York City -- and finally to China -- Rich navigates the stormy waters of today's global business world with his executive team and his wife, Melissa. Along the way, he learns what he really wants out of life and how to get it. A compassionate and intelligent leader, Rich also learns how the "tigers" of the Western world and the "dragons" of the Chinese world can come together by developing and cultivating Guanxi. It is no wonder that executives from large and medium-sized companies alike are calling Jim Tompkins' latest book, "A fun read that teaches us the realities of doing business with Asia."
