The work system has experienced changes over the years, and the latest trend seems to be New Work, which the pandemic has also fuelled during the last months. Often mentioned in combination with the term New Work are the terms "Work from home" or "home office" and other flexible work systems. In this course paper, I will discuss the Chinese work system and compare it with the rest of the world. At the same time, I will investigate the Chinese labour market and the working conditions in the People's Republic of China. Additionally, this paper will also discuss the labour code governing the New Work system in China. I will also seek to find out how motivation leads to job satisfaction using the motivation theories. As the Chinese workforce is influenced by unique behaviours routed in Chinese national culture, which form the work culture, this course paper will also discuss the development and trends in the work system in China.

This paper aims to discuss how traditional Chinese beliefs, values and cultural norms impact Chinese Management styles. The paper outlineswhy Confucianism can be considered a management approach and howChinese culture influences decision-making, relationship, and change management.Furthermore, the paper highlights some recent developments related to technological advancements and Covid19 and their interplay with managerial approaches. Literature sources have been researched based on theirtimely relevance for the topic and their broad acceptance.

It explains where Information Management comes from and its related fields. Additionally,this paper will pay attention to different dimensions of Information Management regarding an organisational and process view. It will establish a relation to new and emerging technologies such as AI and Blockhain.

It conveys information and represents actions that a user can perform. Companies with a global presence need to consider their target countries’ cultures to ensure international success. Additionally, companies with a global presence must also pay close attention to cultural influences by customising their website designs and application designs, e.g., adapting websites to right-to-left writing & reading for Arabic languages. This research paper will investigate the cultural implications of colour and examine the colour preference of Chinese and Western cultures and their usage in GUI (graphical user interface).

First classic culture theories by Hofstede and Trompenaars will be analysed to examine which dimensions might have potential influence in app design. Additionally, the factor colour will be examined as different cultures perceive colours in a different way. The conclusion on the possible impact of culture on the design of mobile applications explains why culture plays such an important role on mobile application design.
