Both economically and politically, China is a different place than it was before the global recession of 2009. It is stronger, more aggressive and more demanding of its partners, especially multi-national companies operating here. Powerful shifts are occurring in China’s economy and government: • A transition is underway to a new generation of leadership in the ruling Communist Party; To accommodate the new environment, western companies are reshaping their public affairs agendas and models. They now must think of their challenges in a more complex framework. Government access and relationships can no longer be their sole strategic platform. In research and one-to-one discussion related to this year’s Public Affairs Dialogue (See a full report of the proceedings and download the Dialogue white paper) organized by Public Affairs Asia and Edelman public relations, several key themes emerged, which together constitute the three-pillar structure upon which future public affairs models will need to be built. They are: • Achieving change in the political, legislative or regulatory environment requires greater regional mapping and significant localization. • Corporate social responsibility strategies will need to be aligned to the social and economic agendas of the Chinese government to give companies an implied license to operate, and those strategies must be retooled to meet the unique definition of CSR in China. • And social media, with its connected community exceeding 420 million, must be addressed to reflect the importance of these new, populist and difficult to control sources of information. I believe it is time to challenge long-held beliefs about how to manage public affairs and government affairs in China and embrace the complexity of the modern nation by adopting this three-part approach.
