1. PwC aims to maintain high standards of professionalism. Please describe a situation when you were engaged in a task where you took a different approach or had a different opinion from others. Please share how this contributed to the teams success. In Generis Consulting, I got a chance to fully involve in the “Clean-tech Switzerland project”In this project, we should comprehensively summarize ecological industrial-related law and regulation, in comparison with Chinas each commitment, moreover, identify the field where we excellently fulfill our commitment sand offer legal opinion in the places where the improvement should been made. Due to compliant and all-embracing nature of government agencies system, our expertise cannot reach to each detail of this project, even worse; we might never touch that field in our previous practice. Instead of studying from scratch as many colleges suggested, I insisted that we shall turn to the guru, like attended or focused on international trade forum with similar topic, or directly called the related government department. Later, this approach proved to be effective, with the general information about each field, we were able to concisely analyze our commitment, and pinpoint the corresponding rules in China. When it came to organize the whole report, I suggested to import some statistic data or charts. Therefore, we should grasp the general picture, not only from the legal prospect but put it in the actual world. My advice won over our partner.Clean-tech Switzerland attended the second Sino-Swiss Economic Forum, the Federal Councilor of Switzerland Johann Schneider-Ammann signed a Memorandum of Understanding with his Chinese counterpart, Minister Chen Deming, to build the park. The project will be implemented by Clean-tech Switzerland, a clean energy promotion agency, and the city of Zhenjiang. The two sides will work closely on park planning, green products manufacturing, technology trade, and research and development.2. PwC sets priority on developing our peoples project management skills in accordance with client expectations and professional standards. Please identify a major activity/project you undertook and describe what it was and how you managed the project.A major activity that I undertook during my university life is the Peking University Biomedicine Forum 2012.During the preparation of the conference, I was appointed to be the head of volunteer team of one branch. As the external liaison department minister of Peking University, I mainly responsible for the sponsorship for Peking University Biomedicine Forum 2012. Before the conference, I held a meeting of all the members to discuss about the issue related to the sponsorship, the events of the conference ceremony and other itinerary of the conference. Then I appointed different members to take charge of the different activities and different company to contact. For example, A is appointed to write news about the reception in the airport and accompany the experts to our university; B is appointed to write news and take photos of the grand event in Lecture Hall, etc. After the division of our work, everyone got a clue of what and when to take actions. After the meeting, I kept on connecting each member to stick to their positions and informing them about some reschedules due to the change of the situation. Due to the allocation of the whole work, we collected the updated information about all the events. The news was edited timely so that people can have a view of how the anniversary goes on the website. Our work is done perfectly and we got 30000RMBas the sponsorship for the conference.

This is a courses that uses culture learning to engage participants in a dynamic competition to prepare a show. Our classes are divided into teams that work together I had 5 Italian members in my team a,and only I am Chinese. From the start of the team, I got the indication that since our team members are from different countries, our distinct cultural background would give our cooperation more challenge. Things turned out to be just as what I thought. We had different views during our first meeting. One guy held the view that we should just sing a song together. I went against his idea by stating that if we can sing an Chinese song which is a cover from the Italian folk songs will be more creative. It is can reflect cultural exchanges.I discussed with other group members with the predicted figures to convince them and they finally agreed on what I said. In this way, all the team members were convinced that my opinion and I became the team leader in a team with Italian students. We choose Bella Ciao Chinese vision to be our song, we as a group lead by me achieved good results of the performance. We beat the other teams in our class and get a high mark for our performance. It is through collaboration and negotiation that we made all the decisions. How we communicate with each other when people have disagreements. When faced with contradictions, I keep myself to talk to the ones
