A Deep Dive into Designing Employee Engagement

Discovering Ways to Enhance Workplace Satisfaction

The rising importance of employee engagement in organizational growth cannot be overstated. Addressing this critical topic, B-Connect Inc., a subsidiary of Business Coach Co., Ltd., headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, is hosting a special seminar on March 24, 2026, inviting distinguished speakers such as Mr. Tomohiro Higuchi, CHRO of FWD Life Insurance Company, and Professor Tomohiro Sudoh from Senshu University.

Seminar Overview

Are you facing challenges such as:

• - Having completed engagement surveys but unsure of the next steps?
• - Seeking a deeper understanding of the theoretical backgrounds that underpin workplace satisfaction?
• - Wishing to learn how to implement effective design strategies that lead to organizational growth?
• - In need of clear guidance on how talent management can be integrated into organizational development?

In the quest for sustainable growth, businesses often struggle to create genuine employee engagement. Instead, many rely on superficial measures that fail to address the root causes of workplace motivation.

This seminar will focus on essential engagement strategies, featuring Mr. Higuchi, who will delve into the scientific mechanisms of employee satisfaction, based on insights from his upcoming publication titled The Psychology of Work Engagement in Industries and Organizations, set to be released in December 2025. In the second part of the seminar, Mr. Sudoh will engage in a dialogue about bridging engagement to corporate growth and the role of HR in facilitating effective workplace interventions.
