Empowering Senior Re-employees: A Free Online Seminar

The Japan Management Association (JMA), headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, is excited to announce a free online seminar titled “Empowering Re-employed Individuals: Support for ‘Autonomy and Expertise’ Reconstruction.” This event is scheduled for September 25, 2025, from 13:30 to 14:30 (JST) and aims to provide valuable insights for HR, training, and management planning professionals in various organizations.

In a world where continuing employment until age 65 has been institutionalized, many senior re-employed individuals face challenges that can diminish their motivation. They often confront factors like loss of position, reduced salaries, and complex relationships with younger supervisors. However, by encouraging these individuals to utilize their vast experience and expertise, organizations can transform them into essential assets.

Importance of the Seminar

This seminar serves as an opportunity for participants to experience the essence of JMA’s seminars designed for seniors and re-employed individuals. It will address challenges faced under re-employment systems and provide HR and training personnel with thoughtful approaches for implementing effective workshops.

Seminar Objectives

The primary goals of this seminar include:

• - Developing a perspective that views “graduating from a position” as a chance for career reconstruction.
• - Renewing appreciation for the value of professional roles.
• - Redefining what it means to work in the era of 100-year life expectancy and promoting autonomous behavior.
• - Exploring new roles as “supporters” within organizations.

The seminar features Tetsuya Anzai, a career consultant and trainer from Hiro Management, who has extensive experience in technology, sales, and talent development at major IT firms. His practical lectures are well-regarded for their grounded insights and real-world applicability, making them suitable for addressing contemporary challenges.

Tailored Training Programs

This seminar is tailored for organizations looking to explore training for their senior re-employed staff or to find effective utilization strategies. JMA is committed to understanding the unique challenges faced by companies when incorporating senior talent and offers customized training programs designed to meet those specific needs.

Examples of Program Elements:

• - Workshops focused on maintaining motivation and encouraging proactive behavior.
• - Practical training to ensure senior employees' experience contributes back to the organization.

The JMA emphasizes flexibility in constructing training programs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Consulting for program implementation is also available, encouraging organizations to reach out with inquiries.
