With an increasing number of Chinese enterprises investing abroad, the need for intercultural competences becomes an issue that obviously has to be approached by these firms. Investment abroad requires especially careful preparation as shown by the experience of many Western companies struggling to set foot in foreign countries. But do Chinese firms prepare for this? Are there similar intercultural training opportunities as in some Western countries? Do curricula at universities offer relevant courses for future managers? What is the state of the field in the research on issues of intercultural management in the academe? The paper seeks to answer these questions by analysing problems of Chinese firms in Germany, by investigating consulting opportunities for Chinese investors planning to go abroad and by evaluating Chinese academic materials on intercultural problems.","PeriodicalId":73431,"journal":{"name":"International journal of Chinese culture and management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJCCM.2008.019590","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66716002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Findings suggest that the DLOQ instrument is applicable to the Chinese context, demographic variables such as age and education level, and the type of ownership of enterprises such as SOEs and POEs, show differences in organisational learning culture. Implications conclude that Chinese companies should pay more attentions to the impact of employees' demographic composition on their organisational learning, and SOEs and should imperatively improve their learning culture so as to competing with POEs.","PeriodicalId":73431,"journal":{"name":"International journal of Chinese culture and management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJCCM.2008.019593","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66716069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The majority find it extremely difficult to transfer their traditional business model to China. According to the business model, the European manufacturing companies generate a major share of their total value proposition through services. They earn, for example, about 25% of their total revenue through services in Europe, but their Chinese subsidiaries achieve only 10%. Thus, they are losing potential earnings and weakening their overall profitability. The main reason stems from the problems associated with managing the service business in the context of Chinese culture. The present article analyses these effects and offers some guidance for managers seeking to increase the service contribution in the Chinese subsidiaries of European manufacturing firms.","PeriodicalId":73431,"journal":{"name":"International journal of Chinese culture and management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJCCM.2008.019591","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66716017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper examines the impact of national culture and organisational culture on intergroup coordination success factors (knowledge sharing, communication, mutual support and stakeholder commitment) through a qualitative analysis of semistructured interviews conducted in mainland China. We draw on a multiple-case study of five different-sized Chinese software companies to identify common patterns of national cultural impact across the cases as well as differences generated due to different organisational cultures. Based on a coding scheme, our research shows that collectivism and concern for 'face' have the most salient impact on these factors. Uncertainty avoidance and power distance also have a slight impact. Interestingly, several organisational culture dimensions (harmony, customer orientation, quality orientation and leadership style) can explain part of the differences among companies. The paper contributes to the team coordination literature, particularly to intergroup coordination in software development, and provides research evidence to support the impact of culture on the implementation of the Capability Maturity Model for Software (SW-CMM). It also has implications for Chinese software project management practice.","PeriodicalId":73431,"journal":{"name":"International journal of Chinese culture and management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJCCM.2008.019594","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66716077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study extended past research by illustrating that the interaction effect of Chinese traditional leadership and compliance is dependent on the employee's individual relationship orientation. The results show that Chinese traditional leadership × compliance × relationship orientation has a significant interaction in the prediction of employees' job performance.

A multiple case study methodology is employed in the study. The case study illustrates the importance of the distributors' HRM in the performance of Sino-Finnish partnerships. The recruitment and retention of technical personnel are critical factors in HRM as well challenges to the performance of partnerships because of the knowledge accumulation by technical personnel. However, manufacturers can contribute to the performance improvement of the partnerships by collaborating in training to improve the human resource practices of distributor companies. Therefore, it is concluded in this study that contributory activities in the distributors' HRM in the manufacturer-distributor partnerships have a significant impact on the performance of the partnerships in the Chinese market.","PeriodicalId":73431,"journal":{"name":"International journal of Chinese culture and management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJCCM.2008.019588","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66716433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From the 1990s, the government has started to take important steps in this direction, by signing all relevant major international agreements, setting stricter measures to keep pollution out of densely populated areas and launching a number of eco-friendly projects aimed at enhancing 'environmental consciousness' in Chinese citizens. What level of environmental consciousness can be found in Chinese contemporary society? Are Chinese consumers ready for the so-called responsible consumption? What value do Chinese citizens attach to 'nature', 'the environment', 'responsible consumption'?

Expatriates working in luxury hotels were chosen to do the study as its high international integration level. The fieldwork data collection was based on semi-structure in-depth interviews with six foreign managers currently working in international branded hotels, and two participants who have undergone management training in the same industry. It was found in this study that lack of initiative, reluctance to accept responsibility and language barrier are the prevailing difficulties that expatriate managers face in the workplace.

It reveals the importance of the task and relationship orientation of organisational culture for organisational learning and for employee attitudes towards change in Chinese organisations. There are differences in China compared to countries in Europe. Two important components of learning organisations are not acceptable in China: making mistakes and reducing the status symbol. Chinese employees are afraid of making mistakes and they do not want to reduce status symbol to a minimum. The challenge is to develop a learning organisation in an atmosphere where people are afraid of making mistakes and differences between subordinates and superiors are accentuated. A model about the impact of organisational culture upon organisational learning and upon attitudes towards change in Chinese organisations, and implications for managers have been developed.","PeriodicalId":73431,"journal":{"name":"International journal of Chinese culture and management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJCCM.2008.017172","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66716415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is particularly true of China, since today's Chinese managers come from a tradition that is different from that of the USA and Thailand. This paper compares the results of a survey study of young managers in China with comparable surveys of young managers in the USA and in Thailand. We consider the underlying theoretical constructs and we pose hypotheses on how they might relate to management behaviour. We describe the surveys and analytical methodology. There is strong evidence of the Chinese respondents' personal objectives of traditional group cohesion, desire for harmony, and relationship-based trust. US respondents are much more concerned with personal entitlements. In many respects, the cultural attributes and business practices of Thai managers lie between those of their Chinese and US counterparts. While it is difficult to link these cultural dimensions to management procedures, there is evidence that Chinese firms use less formal methods and rely more heavily on relationship-based practices.","PeriodicalId":73431,"journal":{"name":"International journal of Chinese culture and management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJCCM.2008.017169","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66716287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
