摘要
随着全球经济社会的发展，跨国公司在经济中扮演着越来越重要的角色。然而在跨国经营管理的同时，原本行之有效的处理冲突的措施却往往在他国毫无影响，英语论文题目，甚至助长了冲突的升级。这一现象是由于在不同的文化中，人们思维方式和行为习惯各有异同。因此，在面对冲突时，要考虑到它所发生的文化背景，采取相应方法。中美两国作为中西方文化的代表性国家，有着截然不同的文化背景与社会基础，因此在面对冲突时，有着不同的处理方式与习惯。
本文以霍夫斯泰德的文化维度论为基础，试从个人主义/集体主义和时间导向两个角度略论比较中国与美国公司在人力资源管理中处理冲突的异同。通过略论两国公司在人力资源管理中，包括决策、激励、人际联系、绩效评估方面的冲突处理方式上的异同，探索中美文化对公司人力资源管理中冲突的处理策略的作用。通过探讨，本文得到以下结论：个人主义/集体主义和时间导向两个文化维度对人们在冲突处理策略的选择上有着重要作用。其中，英语毕业论文，个人主义/集体主义反映了个人对自身利益的坚持程度，时间导向的作用则着重体现在人们对人际联系的态度上。两者的共同影响，使中国公司更多地采用回避和体谅的策略。相比较而言，美国公司地倾向于采用竞争与合作的策略。

Abstract
With the development of global economy, multinational corporations become more and more important in economy. However, in the process of oversea management, the conflict-resolving strategies that one company used to take tend to be invalid or even have a side effect. It is due to the cultural differences in the way people think and behave. So people have to consider the cultural background when facing conflicts and take proper strategies. China and the United States represent western and oriental cultures respectively and thus have different means and customs when dealing with conflicts.
Based on Hofstede’s dimension theory, this thesis compares the strategies adopted in resolving conflicts in human resource management in China and the U.S. in angles of individualism-collectivism and long/short term orientation. By investigating the different strategies taken in decision-making, motivation, human relation and performance appraisal, the thesis explores the culture’s effect on the choice of strategies. It can be concluded that individualism-collectivism, and long /short term orientation do influence people’s choice of solution when handling conflicts. Individualism-collectivism influences people’s choice between interest of the group and interest of individual. Long/short term orientation affects their attitudes towards human relation. The two dimensions act together in forming the difference in American and Chinese’s adoption of strategies. Chinese are more likely to have avoiding and obliging strategies, while dominating and integrating are more favored by Americans.
