Abstract

With the development of Chinese enterprises, western management theory research can not fully explain and guide Chinese management practice, and it is urgent to innovate Chinese management thought, which has become a prominent problem faced by management academia. The revolutionary innovation of Chinese management philosophy and paradigm needs to use the rich management philosophy in Chinese traditional culture to help the development and theoretical construction of Chinese management thought, so that Chinese management can be closer to Chinese management practice. The management philosophy of the Huang-Lao School is of great value to enterprise management and helps to construct a Chinese-style management ideology. This paper expounds the necessity and value of Chinese-style management research, the development and present situation of Chinese management philosophy, and focuses on Huang Lao's management philosophy, expounding the previous scholars' research on the connotation and application of four main schools of management thought: Guan Zi, Sun Zi, Han Feizi and Huai Nan Zi.
