Overcoming Apathy: Imajina's Initiative
On November 5, 2025, Imajina Inc.—a Tokyo-based company dedicated to enhancing corporate culture and employee development—is set to host an enlightening conference titled "Transforming the Age of Apathy: Building Engaged Organizations.” This gathering aims to address the increasingly prevalent mindset of disengagement among employees, especially in Japan.
The Widespread Culture of Apathy
In recent years, there has been a noticeable rise in individuals displaying a lack of enthusiasm in their work. According to Gallup's employee engagement survey, only 6% of Japanese employees feel truly passionate about their jobs. Furthermore, surveys from MENTAGRAPH and Cubic highlight that only about 30% of workers report being motivated, while about 80% acknowledge experiencing moments of demotivation significantly touching upon a troubling trend.
Several factors contribute to this phenomenon. The emphasis on performance-based evaluation, the culture of comparison fostered by social media, and the anxiety of an unclear future play pivotal roles. Many, especially younger generations, find themselves questioning the value of their efforts in a world that seems to offer little reward for hard work. This pervasive mindset not only dampens individual enthusiasm but is also a critical issue for organizational growth. If employees do not engage fully, companies will inevitably stagnate, leading to a broader economic impact.
Imajina's Vision for a Better Future
With experience aiding over 3,000 companies in strengthening their branding, Imajina envisions a workplace where employees can clearly envision their future and connect it with their current responsibilities. This concept revolves around the idea that motivation isn’t simply about personal drive but often stems from the clarity of one’s future potential.
Through this conference, Yoshiki Sekino, CEO of Imajina, aims to share insights on how organizations can cultivate an environment where employees are encouraged to envision their ideal futures and work earnestly towards them. He will discuss successful case studies from various industries that exemplify how to foster a genuinely engaged workplace.
