Abstract

Confucianism is defined by many scholars in different ways, looking at different dimensions of Chinese way of life as existed and also based on the preaching of Confucius during 500–400 BC. Today, looking at near stabilization of global market dynamics by mid 2015, by when, Chinese and Indian businesses found their own place in global markets, management researchers started to examine the secrets of the success of Indian and Chinese businesses and recognize the distinct differences between western management theories and concepts and models that had been operational till then and Indian and Oriental models.

It is in that context, that the author studied a few Chinese businesses –using Meta-Analysis methods to document their core basis of existence, their extent of believing and following Confucianism as a management doctrine.
