Jane, Hyun wrote a good book: “Breaking the Bamboo Ceiling: Career Strategies for Asian.”, it is helpful even for a professional like me who has worked in the American companies for many years. There are many things we can discuss about the book, here, I just want to quote a list of values from the book and initiate discussions about the them:
Collectivism
Maintenance of interpersonal harmony
Reciprocity
Placing others’ needs ahead of one’s own
Deference to authority figures
Importance of family
Avoidance of family shame
Educational and occupational achievement
Ability to resolve psychological problems
Filial piety
Conformity of family and social norms
Self-effacement
Self-control/restraint
Respect for elders and ancestors
Questions:
1)Could you make a choice from the above list and make your own list of values that you think typical of Chinese.
2)Which values do you think most help us in our work place?
3)Which values do you think most hurt us in our work place?
I also collected a list of articles from here and there for your references, click here to read these articles(https://www.westdreamland.com/)
