Join Our Upcoming Webinar
Event Overview
On March 12, 2026, communication transformation company Amana, based in Shinagawa, Tokyo, will host a free webinar titled “Unraveling Bottlenecks in Project Structures: Where Are the Roadblocks?”. This session aims to address the common issues that lead projects to stall, focusing on understanding underlying structures and sharing actionable strategies to mitigate these challenges.
The Problem of Project Stagnation
In many organizations, despite having the right project direction, teams often find themselves unable to progress. Constant discussions may not translate into tangible actions, particularly when numerous busy stakeholders participate, leading to a gradual decline in project priority. This results in repetitive debates that serve only to consume time without producing results.
Such stagnation is especially prevalent in projects that span multiple departments—like branding, marketing, new business development, and organizational growth. While some teams manage to persist and make steady progress, others remain trapped in a cycle of inaction. This disparity is not merely about individual capabilities but rather hinges on the 'structure' and 'mechanisms' that facilitate project advancement.
Learning From Successful Projects
In this upcoming seminar, Amana will present case studies from their innovative collaboration service, Great RIVER. These examples will showcase the structural reasons that contribute to project stagnation while offering concrete approaches to overcoming these barriers. Participants will gain insights that can be immediately applicable in their daily operations.
