Management Innovation
- We maximise skills and capacities for
all management resources.
We believe that the most important factor that
leads to the innovation of organisations and
enterprises is to grasp efficacy in capabilities
of maximizing the skill and capacity of all
management resources.
Today, in order to achieve sustainable growth,
companies must continually develop advanced
technology products and services.
As well as creating value in "uniqueness" in
Japan, it is necessary to realise the value in
"universality" acceptable worldwide.
It is also important for corporations and
businesses to, upon maintaining a higher
degree of management levels in quality and
the environment, examine this "uniqueness"
and "universality" through beneficial third-party
evaluation systems and generate maximum
output individually.
We consider "efficiency" as an absolute
standard and strive to contribute further to the
evolution of management. By supporting the
development of pioneering management ideas
and techniques, nurturing human resource, and
resolving issues within industries, businesses
and organisations play an important role in
shaping a harmonious society within a safe
world in which we live.

From industry to organisation, we support
management innovation in various fields.
Through our members, Board of Directors,
Advisory Councils and trustees, we work to
ascertain the needs of all parties, contributing to
the development of Japanese enterprises.
At present, we are focused on management
innovation in a variety of fields, not only for
organisations, but also municipalities, educational
institutions, hospitals and other public institutions
according to four main themes.
In addition, we investigate our endeavours
from a global perspective.
We are pioneers of composing key tools to
enhance our three main activities: "Management
and Human Resource Innovation" through training &
seminars, "Industry and Technology Development"
through exhibitions & conferences and "Certification

We offer a wide range of rich programmes to
enhance innovation in all aspects. Furthermore,
we build strong networking opportunities for all,
offering platforms for a professional exchange of
information & technology, both domestic and foreign.
