ABSTRACT
With
the deepening of Economic Reform and Open up, more and more foreign-funded
enterprises come to China to invest and set up Sino-foreign joint ventures. Due
to the differences in cultural backgrounds between the two sides of Sino-foreign
joint venture, cultural conflicts are inevitable. Proper cross-cultural
management mechanism is the most effective measure to eliminate cultural
conflicts in Sino-foreign joint ventures, while the complex business environment and the diverse
personnel structure are the problems that cross-cultural management faces. FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to
as FAW-Volkswagen), as one of the most successful large-scale Sino-foreign
joint ventures in China, has accumulated a lot of fruitful experience in the
field of cross-cultural management. Its cross-cultural management experience is
a good reference for other Sino-foreign joint ventures. Based on Corporate
Culture Theory, Cross-Cultural Management Theory, and the
cross-cultural management experience of FAW-Volkswagen, this paper will propose
a general cross-cultural management model applicable to other Sino-foreign
joint ventures.
