Japanese decision making – how is it different? What can we learn? This is a short little presentation at the Canterbury Employers Chamber of Commerce on doing business in Japan. I lived in Tokyo and Osaka for 5 years and worked two of those years within a very large Japanese trading house so this episode contains some of the key things I learned. In particular, I talk about the concepts of Nemawashi and the Ringi system of decision making.
