授業の目的・方法
/Course Objectives and method
The aim of this course is to introduce concepts and cases of Japanese management to students. The course is designed to explore strengths and weaknesses of Japanese businesses and management in contrast to non-Japanese, mostly Western, counterparts. Students are expected to have learned the basics of business organization prior to enrolling in this course.  

To improve and maintain the level of their participation in class, this course employs teaching styles and methods for active learning. Preparatory materials will be uploaded to the Manaba system or other online platforms where appropriate. The classes will be mainly run in a style of group and individual discussions by students.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the course delivered in 2022 will be conducted via online platforms including Manaba and Zoom or through the hybrid use of both online and face-to-face interactions. The mode of delivery (whether it be online only or hybrid) will be notified prior to the first class and discussed in class with the students enrolled. If you have any difficulty in accessing these technologies, please contact the instructors for further assistance.
