Opening a company in one of Shenzhen, China's, High Tech Business Incubators gave Montgomery insights into the most significant economic expansion recorded in human history. With twenty years of living and working in Shenzhen, China, Dr. Elisabeth P. Montgomery, holds a ringside seat as a scholar-practitioner in the explosion of Shenzhen's commerce and industry. Her sociological exploration Fire In the Lake - Chinese Urban Micro-Business Owner-Manager Values And Perspectives on International Development Ethics follows the phenomenal rise of China, from 1999, when China was in the beginnings of its economic development goals with China as an unstoppable economic power of the planet. In addition to providing broad socio-historical knowledge on Chinese entrepreneurial culture, Montgomery interviews men and women running businesses to express the stories defining the term "capitalism with socialist characteristics." In 2004, 197 micro-business owner-managers from Shenzhen, China, completed the Mandarin Chinese version of the Schwartz Values Survey (SVS). The values rated as most important to these business owners were security, conformity, achievement, self-direction, followed by benevolence, and then, universalism, power, hedonism, tradition, and stimulation. Montgomery is one of the first researchers to use the popular and world recognized SVS values survey, on a burgeoning population other than teachers and students.
