Yes sure and for differents reasons :

  2. To be more independent, instead of relying on translation all the time for everything: you can do more things quicker
  3. To better understand your environment, people, colleagues comments at work, identify best ways of doing things, good or bad business opportunities etc.

Speaking Chinese opens to a whole new world, and if you want to develop yourself in China or even in Asia, mastering Chinese is definitely a strong advantage.

What are the biggest mistake that you did in china?

Working too long without understanding / considering the basics of « Chinese ways”, which also does not mean we should necessarily work in a Chinese style.
