We have a track record of supporting more than 1,000 Japanese people

learn problem-solving skills
Work consciously of time and cooperate flexibly to achieve goals
Japanese corporate culture includes tacit understanding, a customer-first mindset, and meetings to share information. On the other hand, in global teams, it is difficult for people to understand the work style unique to Japan, and there is a tendency to work individually within the team.
Target audience
``Mindset when working in a global team'' is a program for those who want to be active globally and who want to contribute to the globalization of their company.
Do you have any of the following problems?
I belong to a global team, but the relationship between members is weak and I don't feel a sense of cooperation
Feeling stressed about participating in global conferences and managing conferences
Even if a plan is made as a team, each member has their own goals and their actions vary.
I want to give training and feedback to foreign employees, but I don't know how to do it well
There are various strengths and personalities within the group, but they are not shared as one team
I want to overcome cultural gaps and build friendly relationships
In the traditional method
Understanding of “working using English”
it may not be enough

Teamwork training unique to overseas
