A Business Novel:
Caught Between the Tiger and the Dragon

By Jim Tompkins

Caught Between the Tiger and the Dragon coverCaught Between the Tiger and the Dragon is a modern-day fable that cleverly brings to life the ups and downs of business interactions with China and being under the thumb of a private equity company.

Rich Morrison, the new CEO of a lingerie manufacturing company, feels as if he's on a crazy, never-ending treadmill powered by a tightfisted overlord who thinks China holds the key to all riches and that financial forecasts can actually predict the future.

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.

"Through the magic of a realistic business situation, the author helps us to better understand how we can make the world even flatter." -- C. John Langley Jr., Ph.D., Professor of Supply Chain Management, Georgia Institute of Technology

"Jim Tompkins takes the complex topic of globalization and reduces it to an entertaining story that emboldens and equips the reader to search out trade with China." -- John Majors, Vice President of Distribution, Tootsie Roll Industries

"Very entertaining! This novel gives the reader a truly strategic approach to conducting business in China that includes maintaining the critical elements of customer service, product quality, and trading partner relationships." -- Robert Nardone, President, Supply Chain Guidance LLC
