The Global Management Academy (GMA), a year-round training program for managers and executives, is now accepting applications for the 2024 academic year. It is designed to develop global leaders by covering the essential elements of long-term leadership and ensuring tangible results.

Development Needs for Global Managers In Japan

There is an ever more urgent need for Japanese managers to operate effectively and confidently in an increasingly global business environment. Yet, many managers are held back by English-speaking fears around making mistakes, being judged, not being able to follow conversations or speak up to make even a simple comment. These continue to be surprisingly resistant barriers to global leadership success.

Key hindrances:

1. Lack of awareness to manage diversity
2. Poor relationships leading to lower motivation
3. Ineffective communication with face-to-face/remote teams
4. Lack of trust hinders delegation
5. Reluctance to offer timely feedback
6. Fear of speaking up in meetings/conference calls

By becoming the kind of leader that I can now so clearly envision, my team members will grow and develop, maintain motivation and fulfill their potential.
