[6/22 Zoom Event] 'Unconscious Bias' Program Briefing Session

By addressing "unconscious bias," we respect diversity and improve organizational performance!

Are such misconceptions occurring in the workplace? ▼ Female employees with children cannot be entrusted with responsible work ▼ Employees from the 'Yutori' generation lack the desire to take on challenges ▼ Foreign employees are careless in their work and do not listen ▼ Employees who have worked at this company for many years should be promoted over those who have changed jobs These are examples of unconscious bias, which refers to distorted views and assumptions that one is not aware of. In recent years, it has become a topic of interest, particularly in the realm of 'Diversity & Inclusion.' Everyone has some form of unconscious bias, which can negatively affect workplace relationships and potentially harm the overall performance of the organization. Franklin Covey Japan will begin offering a new program to understand and address these unconscious biases starting July 21. This high-quality content has been implemented in global companies around the world since 2018. *For more details, please refer to the related materials available for download in PDF format.

[Speaker] Kyoko Kawasaki, President and CEO, First Innovatec Co., Ltd. [Purpose of the Event] In the VUCA era, where market changes are rapid and product life cycles are shortening, research and development departments are required to be more aware than ever of "market perspective" and "customer value" in their development processes. This means that it is not enough to simply deepen technology; it is essential to elevate it to "sellable" and "useful" technology through a new way of thinking. This seminar will explain the concepts and methods for engineers and R&D leaders to incorporate a marketing perspective and set valuable research and development themes. [Knowledge to be Acquired] - Basic marketing knowledge that engineers should grasp - How to utilize marketing frameworks aimed at STP (Segmentation, Targeting, Positioning) - The process of transforming technical ideas into research and development themes that connect to business

In the world, there are more information systems than there are companies, but the number of systems that truly "help with a company's business operations" in a meaningful way is limited. To address this challenge, our company has developed and evolved our unique supply chain solutions, the "Φ-Conductor Series" and "Φ-Pilot Series." Since our establishment, we have upheld the philosophy of "together with our customers, for our customers," and, unlike many IT vendors, we have consistently focused on the effectiveness of our implementations, steadily building our track record. Therefore, on the occasion of our 25th anniversary, we have decided to hold an event where customers who have implemented our solutions will share their experiences regarding the effectiveness of the implementation and any challenges they faced. The companies presenting will include a diverse range of six user companies, primarily from the food industry. Additionally, at the concurrently held exhibition, we will showcase our original lineup, the "Φ-Pilot Series" and "Φ-Conductor Series," along with add-on features and optional products related to φ-Pilot that our partner companies are working on. We warmly invite you to attend this event.
