Face, Harmony, and Social Structure: An Analysis of Organizational Behavior Across Cultures by P. Christopher Earley (Professor of Management at the Graduate School of Management, Professor of Management at the Graduate School of Management, University of California at Irvine, USA)
Face, Harmony, and Social Structure continues author P. Christopher Earley's investigations of the differences among people within organizations in different cultures. In this study, Earley develops a mid-range theory of individual behaviour, self-concept, and interpersonal process in predicting cultural differences in organizational settings. This work represents a new theory of self-presentation and face within a cross-cultural context, integrating a cross-level approach ranging from the individual to the organization and to the societal levels of discussion.
