With the advance of digital technology, the environment surrounding companies is changing rapidly. The response to performance in particular is no longer just one department's issue — it is becoming a factor that determines management strategy itself.

At one company headquartered in Tokyo, the development department led a company-wide reform. They exhaustively reviewed existing business processes and abolished approval procedures that had become mere formalities, whereupon the speed of decision-making improved dramatically.

That said, the reform did not always go smoothly. From the field came objections that there was no need to change the conventional way of doing things. Management held repeated dialogues and, by accumulating small success cases, gradually changed the mindset of the whole organization.

Transformation is not the introduction of technology itself but the practice of re-examining how people and organizations should be. Rather than consuming performance as a mere buzzword, reinterpreting it in light of one's own company's issues is surely the source of sustainable competitiveness.

How to use this page

Start with all layers on. Once you can follow the story, hide English. Then hide furigana and try reading the kanji alone. Romaji is off by default — lean on kana as early as you can.
