1. Introduction
With the rapid economical development of our era, information explosion and technology innovation proceed at unprecedented speed, and the competitions among enterprises are increasingly fierce. To survive and win in this competitive world, enterprises need to pay more attention to scientific invention and technological innovation, which in turn rely greatly on the possession of most optimized human resources. Thus human resources or innovative and well-cultivated talents are playing a more important role in society. More and more enterprises realize that human resource management (HRM) is the core of the enterprise management. Under this background, enterprises have to focus on the reform of traditional human resource management. Some western ideology may need to be integrated into HRM practice in the enterprises.
There are two research aspects in this paper, the first one focuses on discussing the conflicts between Confucianism and western humanism in HRM in Chinese enterprises. The other one focuses on the integration of Confucianism and western humanism in HRM in Chinese enterprises. Both of these two aspects have given a suggestion of how to integrate Confucianism and western humanism in human resource management in Chinese enterprises.
