23、谢意。 作为一名在一家中美合资企业工作了两年的美国经理，我以为中人和美国人在经营管理中存在着差异。由于我们之间有着不同的文化传统，所以我们比大部分中国同行来得直率。我无法断言我们的经营方式一定在他们的之上。毕竟各有各的优点和弊病。近年来，越来越多的美国管理人员已认识到中国人那种更具人情味的管理方式的长处。 很高兴我们能交换意见和信息， 并达成共识。我希望我们在今后的日子里，我能有机会就此话题与各位交换自己的看法。 谢谢！。.Performing -Coordinating (Field Interpreting)n销售代表n外贸部 n取行李 n停车场 n直达航班 n明天，会有时差反应 n这样一
