The Japanese economy was once described as the “rising sun,” overcoming all odds to become an economic superpower. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, many of the largest companies in the world with the highest capitalization were Japanese. Often, the key to Japan's success was attributed to its unique business model, strategies and practices.

However, Japan no longer enjoys strong growth. Since the infamous “burst of the bubble”, Japanese companies have slipped from dominance and lost their competitive edge to companies in America, China and other regions. Japan's once highly acclaimed business management has been critiqued, judged, and brought into question.

Japan is now in a transitional phase. Some companies are cementing their traditional business practices, others are transforming their strategies entirely, while still others are unsure how to adapt to the new times.

This course is essential for anyone aiming to be a global leader. It helps them understand the basics of Japanese business, Japan's rise (including its successes and failures), and allows them to see future potential.

The course takes a holistic approach. It looks not only at strategy and practices, but also at the entire management ecosystem. It explores factors ranging from socioeconomic to international interventions that helped shape Japanese corporate culture, strategy and vision.

This course has been designed to give future leaders the right mindset to be a global leader. Learners study various corporate philosophies and case studies to see firsthand the benefits - and limitations - of Japanese business management.

日本的经济曾被描述为“初升的太阳”。日本克服了一切困难,成为了经济超级大国。在20世纪80年代末和90年代初,世界上许多拥有最高资本总额的大型公司都是日本的。通常而言,日本成功的关键在于其独特的商业模式、战略和实践。

然而,日本不再享有强劲增长。自臭名昭着的“泡沫破灭”以来,日本公司已经脱离了主导地位,失去了对美国、中国和其他地区公司的竞争优势。日本曾经备受推崇的企业管理受到批评、审视和质疑。

日本现在处于过渡阶段。一些公司正在巩固其传统的经营实践,一些公司正在彻底改变其战略,而另一些公司则不确定如何适应新的时代。

想要成为全球性领导者的人不可错过本课程。它将帮助您了解日式经营的基础知识以及日本的崛起(包括其成功和失败),并让您看到未来的潜力。

本课程采用全观法,不仅关注战略与实践,还关注整个管理生态系统。它探讨了从社会经济到国际干预的各种因素,这些因素促进了日本企业文化、战略和未来视野的形成。

本课程旨在为未来的领导者提供成为全球性领导者的正确思维模式。学员将学习各种企业理念和案例研究,以便直接了解日式经营管理的优势(和局限)。
