Innovation Research Report "The Promotion of Dialogue"
The Power to Change "It's Useless to Talk" - A book that delves into the depths of "Japanese organizational culture" to uncover why voices from the field go unheard and why meetings go awry.
"Another meeting, huh?" "In the end, it's just the higher-ups who decide, right?" ─ Isn't such resignation becoming commonplace within organizations? This book proposes a "reconstruction of dialogue" centered on the sharing of meaning, based on social psychology, philosophy, and anthropology. In workplaces where motivation and empathy tend to be lost, now is the time for "dialogue" to become the starting point for transformation. Moving beyond superficial discussions to truly meaningful consensus formation─. 【For those facing these concerns】 ■ Even after meetings, it ultimately comes down to "the higher-ups deciding," with no reflection of on-the-ground voices. ■ I want to create a workplace where we can speak candidly, but the culture of reading the room gets in the way. ■ In our obsession with "unanimity," decision-making is delayed, and the responsibility becomes ambiguous. ■ By constantly avoiding conflict, we fail to generate constructive discussions or innovative ideas. ■ I want to respect diverse opinions within the organization, but the atmosphere does not welcome dissenting views. The emphasis on harmony, the pressure to conform, and the ambiguity of responsibility ─ these are cultural structures rooted in history and environment, and they cannot be changed by superficial meeting techniques or facilitation skills alone. This book breathes life into your organization.
