JINJI Lounge Event: Discovering the Core of Organizational Development

On September 10, 2025, join us for the 10th edition of the JINJI Lounge at the cozy BAR FIVE Arrows in Shinjuku, Tokyo. This special event is aimed at professionals involved in HR and organizational development. The night promises insightful discussions centered around a pressing question: Why do so many organizational development initiatives fail?.

The Importance of Organizational Development

In recent years, many companies have attempted to implement organizational development strategies. However, the results have often been disappointing, leading to a mere mechanical approach rather than genuine progress. Key reasons for this include a focus on short-term outcomes and a disconnection between individual career goals and organizational growth. The need of the hour is to create workplaces where employees can build meaningful careers while contributing to the organization’s success.

In light of these developments, the JINJI Lounge serves as a platform to tackle real HR challenges, offering both knowledge and networking opportunities.

Special Guest: Toshimitsu Sowa

This edition features a special talk by Toshimitsu Sowa, President of the Human Resource Research Institute. With a strong background in both HR and psychology, Sowa will share his insights on organizational development using unique methodologies that intersect these fields. His experience spans various industries, making his perspective particularly valuable for those in HR roles. Expect to gain insights into the essence of career development from his extensive background, including work with over 20,000 job seekers.
