In the context of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), a cadre refers to a party member who holds a position of authority or responsibility within the party-state system. This includes individuals in leadership or administrative positions across government, state-owned enterprises, and other public institutions.
The quality of China’s younger generation of cadre workforce is a crucial factor influencing the nation’s future development. As a vital component of the power structure, they wield significant authority, impacting resource allocation, shaping policy decisions, and potentially playing a decisive role in China’s overall economic and social progression.
Through numerous field investigations and consultations with relevant individuals, researchers at ANBOUND have identified a multitude of challenges within the current cohort of young cadres.
Examples of the issues observed include errors in addressing senior leaders, widespread typographical and grammatical mistakes in official government documents, a lack of familiarity with administrative and business etiquette, among others.
While many of these young cadres possess impressive academic credentials, including degrees in fields such as economics and finance, with some even holding doctoral qualifications, such credentials do not necessarily reflect the realities of the professional world. In practice, many of these individuals are ill-equipped to handle the complexities of real-world challenges, especially when compared to experienced career officials. Despite their theoretical knowledge, they often lack the practical experience necessary to navigate complex situations. Furthermore, some high-achieving cadres tend to focus on technical concepts, but when faced with substantial problems, they quickly find themselves out of their depth.
Additionally, in terms of interpersonal interactions, certain young cadres exhibit a sense of inflated authority, using their position and academic credentials to create hierarchical distinctions in relationships that should be based on equality, often displaying a sense of superiority in their dealings with others.
