In the field of business, problems may also arise because of different cultural values in equality and hierarchy between East and West. In Taiwan, Hong Kong and the private companies of mainland China, there is a tendency for business to be small, family-owned and controlled structures, which operate very much along traditional lines more closely associated with kinship than Western corporate structures. Western companies emphasize finding “the right person” for each job, i.e., selecting individual employees on the basis of their training and experience, while their Eastern counterparts may think it important to employ their in-group members or certain persons who are well placed in the local structure, even where they may not have the initial training and experience.
