This study aims to describe the leadership styles employed by Chinese managers through the following areas: work delegation, motivation and control mechanisms. The subjects that were selected for this study are based on the following criteria: those who are either alien or naturalized Chinese who occupied the top level positions in Chinese firms, those who have stayed in the country for more than ten years and who have held the managerial position for at least five years. An interview guide was used for classifying the subjects' responses. The study's results revealed that in terms of work delegation, majority of the managers practiced the Laissez-Faire approach in terms of motivation, Chinese managers used money as main motivator and in terms of control mechanism, the managers give punishments at once to their employees when they commit mistakes.
