Compare culture of management between China and the UK

There are number of difference of management between China, the West and the Europe because of their culture. According to Chen & Partington (2003) researched the difference of building relationship between Chinese and British.   Chinese project managers prefer to work together with their team members on projects for years, that means they stay at their established team and their team members also enjoy this mode. At the same time, they know each other include their families and hobbits. However, the UK project managers do not appear to concern their team members before, and those most of members are new to them. They prefer to understand the new staffs through new projects. Meanwhile, they realize that respect and trust are the most import for their team and make them being good partners.
