The close relationship of the Chinese corporate culture with the policy of reform and openness

Wang Yifei

The policy of reform and openness predetermined the emergence and development of corporate culture in China. With the import of a large amount of foreign capital into China, a corporate culture with Chinese characteristics began to take shape. The theory of corporate culture in China was based on the ideological principles of Chinese traditional culture. Chinese corporate culture is inextricably linked with the political course of the CPC and the economy of modern China. The author concludes that corporate culture in China is both a subsystem of culture as a form of social being and a particular type of social culture.
