授業内容
In this course, we will study "What is International Management?" based on an in-depth exploration of Japanese-style management. Several decades ago, Japanese-style management was praised in popular books such as "Japan as No.1" attracting attention from all over the world. Currently, however, it faces many serious difficulties and challenges, and it is now recognized that Japanese management must take a wider, global perspective. Under these circumstances, International Management has become an essential issue for Japanese companies. We believe that many of the challenges Japanese companies face can be shared with international students. By discussing these issues with you, we will deepen our knowledge of International Management.
