Abstract:Along with the unceasingly thorough development of the reform and the quickening of global economic integration, the economy of our country has been undertaking great changes. More and more foreign-controlled companies invest in China, which brings much vitality into our country’s traditional enterprises. However, every coin has two sides. The employees with different cultural background would inevitably have some difficulties in communicating with each other, which is quite disadvantageous to the development of the enterprises. Employees (both foreign and Chinese), as members of foreign-funded companies, should develop cross-cultural adaptation competence so as to adjust themselves to a new working and living environment, which has a deep and far significance to both foreign employees and local employees in foreign-funded enterprises. This paper will first make a brief introduction to the main topic, and then in the second chapter, the present study of the relevant subject both at home and abroad will be presented. And in the third chapter, causes that influence performances of employees of foreign-funded enterprises will be analyzed according to the findings of questionnaire. The last chapter will lay emphasis on strategies on how to develop cross-cultural adaptation competence so that employees of foreign-funded enterprises can achieve effective intercultural communication.
Key Words: cross-cultural adaptation competence employees of foreign-funded enterprises strategies
