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 & Registration" through audits & investigations. 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.
