However, the reform brought severe disturbance and confusion to Chinese culture. As a result, those senior Chinese managers tend to hold very much different values compared with their subordinates. This research is trying to study the cultural dissonance of senior versus junior Chinese managers from 14 culture dimensions. Each dimension was measured from three levels:it is(practices), should be(desirable values), and wish to be (desired values). 97 senior managers and 236 junior managers answered the questionnaire. We found that for most dimensions there were no significant cognitive differences between the senior and junior managers at the it is level. However, there were significant differences in 7 dimensions at should be level and wish to be level. The results suggest that Chinese manages should be treated differently in terms of culture dimensions and levels due to generation gap, and indicate possible future change direction of Chinese culture. 【关 键 词】文化维度/文化层面/文化差异culture dimensions/culture levels/culture dissonance 0　引言 最近一段时间以来，有很多学者对跨国文化差异作出了很细致的研究。从最开始，学者们就主要从两个角度来分析国家116000人的4个文化维度：权力距离（Power Dis
