Chinese planning tends toward comprehensive scope that addresses interconnected elements rather than narrow focus on isolated objectives. Plans consider multiple dimensions, anticipate various requirements, and address relationships among elements. This systemic orientation recognizes that goals exist in context—educational planning addresses resources and relationships alongside academic objectives; business planning addresses government dimensions and operational requirements alongside market strategy.
The comprehensive approach reflects understanding that narrow planning often fails through neglected dimensions. What might seem like over-planning reflects orientation toward addressing full situations. When planning with Chinese counterparts, expect attention to elements that narrower approaches might ignore—relationship dimensions, contextual factors, connected requirements.
