Discover Effective Cross-Cultural Management Techniques
In today’s global marketplace, effective communication and management of foreign staff are essential for organizational success. To address the pressing issues faced by many companies in managing foreign workers, Studist, a Tokyo-based company dedicated to operational reform, is hosting an online seminar on July 31. This seminar will focus on enhancing communication and management strategies for foreign laborers.
Understanding the Context
As labor shortages become increasingly serious, many businesses are turning to foreign workers to fill their gaps. However, managing these staff members can come with challenges, such as miscommunication and misunderstandings. For instance, it is not uncommon for employers to receive an affirmative response from foreign staff such as "I can do it" or "I understand," only to find that tasks remain incomplete. Furthermore, despite being able to communicate in Japanese, many managers struggle to effectively convey work instructions, leading to frustration on both sides. The reality is that many companies invest significant time and resources in training, yet experience high turnover rates among foreign workers.
This seminar aims to provide practical approaches to these challenges by focusing on effective communication and management strategies that can enhance overall organizational performance through foreign staff engagement.
