AB  - Introduces a heuristic framework to help westerners compare and
contrast management in the People′s Republic of China (PRC) with the
West. Western educators and consultants participating in management
development programmes in the PRC have reported difficulties in
understanding the realities of managing in the PRC, encouraging trainee
participation, organizing effective group discussion among trainees,
joining efforts with PRC faculty, and overcoming frustration caused by
inefficient administrative support. Explores the causes for these
difficulties by examining the differences between the PRC and the West
in terms of pedagogy, classroom culture, attitudes towards foreigners,
and research orientation. Offers examples and recommendations to
westerners who hope to contribute more effectively to the PRC′s
management development.
