本期《China Flexpat Podcast》深入探讨欧洲与中国价值观的差异及其对商业行为，尤其是管理层的影响。节目特邀中捷混血嘉宾Adam，他拥有在欧洲成长、英国留学及中国深造的独特跨文化经历。对话围绕海外华人群体的文化分层、短期留学的融入挑战、语言障碍的深层原因，以及海归人才如何在中国职场发挥其“创造力”优势展开。核心观点指出，欧洲的“直接透明”沟通与中国的“含蓄委婉”形成鲜明对比，而真正的跨文化成功在于双向适应与动态平衡。节目还分享了无需出国即可培养国际化思维的创新方法，并展望了华人作为“文化桥梁”在中国企业全球化进程中的关键作用。

This episode of China Flexpat Podcast delves into the differences between European and Chinese values and their profound impact on business behavior, especially at the managerial level. The guest is Adam, a half-Chinese, half-Czech professional with a unique cross-cultural background, having grown up in Europe, studied in the UK, and pursued further education in China. The conversation covers the cultural stratification of overseas Chinese, the integration challenges of short-term study abroad, the root causes of language barriers, and how returnees can leverage their "creativity" advantage in the Chinese workplace. A key insight highlights the contrast between Europe's "direct and transparent" communication and China's "indirect and subtle" approach, emphasizing that true cross-cultural success lies in mutual adaptation and dynamic balance. The episode also shares innovative methods for cultivating a global mindset without leaving China and looks forward to the crucial role of Chinese professionals as "cultural bridges" in the globalization of Chinese companies.
