When was Beijing’s city wall torn down? Where is the first ring road? When did the Forbidden City become a museum? How did the Japanese occupation affect the city? 

This Saturday we will take out more than 20 original Beijing maps from our collection that we seldom have on display for our walk “The Evolution of Modern Beijing”. We will start off at the Beijing city planning museum, then walk through the nearby hutongs and finally end at our gallery with a display of rare maps of Beijing, and a well-deserved drink.

AmCham China Young Professionals Committee is pleased to invite you for an interactive discussion with CEO of our member company, and to equip you with the essential skills and readiness to continue the leadership journey.

The session will focus on:

* How to build executive presence and self-awareness to bring ideas and points of view to your work confidently. 
* How to build stakeholder relationships for greater influence and collaboration.
* Identify the transferable skills that are critical for career advancement.

As a rehearsal for their actual dissertation defence, three Masters students at Yenching Academy of Peking University have five minutes each to give us insight into their dissertations, after which moderators David Moser and Alan Babington-Smith attempt to recreate the inquisitive vibe of a panel of professors at their actual defence later this month.

Their topics are:

Ariel: United States and PRC’s responses to a UN stalemate over the future of space resource governance

Morrison: Ideological and political education and State legitimacy; comparing China and UK

Lauryn: How do country nicknames used online (such as little Japanese, old American, etc. 小日本、老美、战斗民族、巴铁) reflect or create nationalism, national identity and sentiments towards other countries?

All attendees may ask questions to round off the event.
This is an experiment based on the "3-Minute Thesis" competition that is increasingly common at universities, and may become an annual RASBJ/Yenching event.
