Practical Workshop to Enhance Communication with Foreign Workers
In an effort to maximize the benefits of foreign talent in Japan, Linc Corporation is set to host a hands-on workshop on February 19, 2026, focusing specifically on effective communication in the workplace. This workshop aims to bridge the communication gap between foreign employees and Japanese staff, allowing for better understanding and workflow efficiency.
Workshop Objectives
As the recruitment of foreign personnel accelerates in Japan, many organizations face challenges in communicating effectively. Employees often report issues such as, “We speak the same language, but we’re not getting the message across,” and “Vague Japanese expressions lead to mistakes in tasks.” This workshop seeks to address these critical concerns directly.
Contents of the Program
The workshop is designed with practical applications in mind. It will include role-playing exercises and discussions based on real-life scenarios that participants might face in their workplaces. The goal is for attendees to leave with actionable strategies tailored to their specific environments. Here’s a breakdown of what participants can expect:
1.
Identifying Common Miscommunication: Through case studies, we will uncover the fundamental causes of miscommunication that often occur in the workplace.
2.
Group Work on Paraphrasing: Participants will engage in exercises to transform vague expressions, such as "within reasonable limits," into clear and unambiguous messages.
3.
Role-playing Five Key Points: Attendees will practice specific skills, such as writing shorter sentences and clarifying subjects in their communication.
4.
Networking Event: After the workshop sessions, a networking hour will allow participants to enjoy light refreshments while engaging with peers and speakers to share experiences and ask questions.
Featured Speaker
The workshop will feature a special lecturer who has taught Japanese to over 1,000 foreign learners across numerous universities and Japanese language schools. In addition, this speaker has significant experience in providing training for major companies like Aeon Mall, enhancing the education of foreign talent in various business environments.
