Creating Engaged Workplaces: A Networking Event in Shibuya for HR Professionals

On March 23, 2026, a unique networking event titled “Real HR Recruiting Exchange for Building Retention-Focused Organizations” will take place at the KOBUSHI BEER LOUNGE & BAR, located in Shibuya's Dogenzaka area. This event is organized by Masakazu Honda, the CEO of En, aiming to address the pressing issue of employee turnover in today's job market.

As companies face a chronic shortage of talent and a market heavily favoring job seekers, developing strategies to build 'organizations that retain' employees has become essential. The event promises a rich exchange of insights among decision-makers from diverse companies, including startup founders and HR leaders.

Event Purpose

The central goal of the networking event is to foster discussions around designing effective strategies that ensure organizations not only attract but also retain valuable employees. Leaders will share their real-life success stories and learn from past failures, creating a collaborative learning environment.

Participants will engage in mini-seminars focused on 'retention-first hiring strategies,' providing practical advice that can be implemented immediately. This includes discussions on hiring branding, the hiring process, and post-hire follow-up strategies, ensuring that visitors leave with actionable insights.
