Inside the Kaisha (Hardcover)

Featuring specific insights that non-Japanese managers can use in everyday business practice, plus advice from salarymen to their Western counterparts, "Inside the Kaisha" gives compelling voice to a new generation of Japanese businesspeople and invaluable wisdom to those who do business with them. Presents a series of apparent contradictions in Japanese business conduct. This book shows why behavior that appears inconsistent to the Westerner is perfectly congruous to the Japanese way of framing the context of the situation or using a particular model to guide behavior.
