“JapanCrossCultural Training & Coaching was a great support when I started a new assignment in a Japanese company. Though I have been working in international teams for almost 15 years before, I wanted to gain a better understanding of the dos and donts in the Japanese culture. The coaching with Kaoru Yoshioka helped me a lot to understand specific situations and increased my ability to navigate in the new cultural environment. This was a great investment in my career.” (Susan B., Hitachi)

“…this was one of the most interesting seminars I ever participated in. Very well conducted, everything well explained, and in general very useful. ” (Participant of a seminar “Understanding the Japanese business mentality”)
