Human resource management techniques may vary between countries of differing culture and ethnic origins. China is a prime example of a country which has a strong culture of discipline and organisational structure in the workplace, which relies on respect and hierachy. Workers in the Netherlands prefer to work on a co-operative basis, developing working partnerships built on trust, encouragement and success.
