N2 - Humanistic management is a significant school of thought within management studies, broadly understood as an approach that emphasizes attention to people and human factors within organizations. Carl Rogers' humanistic psychology provides strong theoretical support for modern humanistic management. Rogers' theory aligns deeply with the humanistic ideas found in traditional Chineseculture, such as Confucian “benevolent governance” (ren zheng) and Taoist “wu wei” (non⁃intervention). Confucianism advocates for leaders to care for their subordinates and promote overall harmony, while Taoism emphasizes reducing control to allow individuals to grow naturally. Both offer guidance for the “Tao” (principle) and “Shu” (technique) of management, emphasizing understanding and respecting individuals to achieve mutual growth for the organization and its members. This paper explores the connections between Rogers' humanistic psychology and the human⁃centered management philosophy in Chinese tradition, analyzing their applications in modern enterprises. Ultimately, the in⁃tegration of Eastern and Western management wisdom not only enhances management effectiveness but also provides new perspectives and practical approaches for the sustainable development of organizations and the long⁃term growth of employees.
