Synopsis

Japan has survived a major recession and Japanese companies have employed numerous new management strategies to deal with the new challenges. These strategies may also be of interest to Western and non-Western companies alike. This book outlines the particulars of Japanese management and how modern Japanese management employs many practices which are very successful and worth adopting. The main objective of this book is to illustrate the many teachings that Japanese management practice can offer the rest of the world. The book thus targets managers who deal with Japanese business partners, or work in Japan, students of Japanese Studies, Asian Studies or International Business.
