The Subtle Logics of Knowledge Conflicts in China's Foreign Enterprises (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book investigates knowledge interactions in China's foreign enterprises. It reveals that cultural differences strongly account for knowledge-related obstacles, namely knowledge leakage and insufficient knowledge sharing. Contrary to conventional wisdom, however, widespread cultural arguments such as Confucianism or collectivism hardly apply to Chinese employees' handling of knowledge. In fact, more subtle cultural logics are relevant in daily work, which are connected to the perceived stability of the enterprise itself. But these usually go unnoticed. Thus, rather than being distracted by a national "Chinese culture", managers can take real action to solve knowledge conflicts in their particular enterprise. Contents
