What exactly is the problem?
“Up until now, Japanese companies had had a
strong inward-looking nature due to having been
fairly secure in a big domestic market. As such, [HR
strategies have] structural weaknesses in
mechanisms designed to develop core employees
and leaders with a global frame of mind.”
– Chief Economist, Research Institute of Economy, Trade and
Industry
