The New Leadership Course by Taichi Kogure: Transforming Organizations through Language

In today's corporate landscape, the notion of governance and organizational culture has come under intense scrutiny. Recent scandals involving companies like Fuji TV, the former Johnny's productions, and KADOKAWA have revealed a common thread: a disconnect between executive leadership and on-ground reality, compounded by the inability to effectively communicate purpose and values across the organization. These issues are critical as they threaten sustained growth and the ability to rebuild trust.

To address these challenges, Taichi Kogure, a renowned language consultant and bestselling author, is set to launch a new course titled "Teach-able Leaders" as part of his Language Program. The course targets executives and managers, focusing on developing their language skills to articulate the organization's vision and purpose clearly, thereby translating these concepts into actions.

The announcement of this course comes in response to heightened interest from numerous companies facing governance and organizational reform challenges. Kogure's program has already made significant impacts, as evidenced by the success of companies like Enalis, which implemented his strategies to clarify their management vision and enhance communication between leadership and staff.

Background of the New Course

Kogure has repeatedly highlighted a critical issue: despite having a vision, many organizations struggle to mobilize their employees.

The new course is devised to address three main objectives:

1. Enhancing Language Skills: Participants will learn to convert corporate policies and philosophies into team objectives, enabling more coherent communication.
2. Visualizing Implicit Expectations: Techniques will be taught to identify and make explicit the unspoken norms and assumptions that influence workplace dynamics.
3. Facilitating Open Communication: Leaders will gain skills to elicit honest feedback and address underlying feelings, thereby nurturing an environment conducive to action.

Voices from Implementing Organizations: Enalis Inc.

As the emphasis on ESG management and non-financial information grows, fostering a culture of understanding and action within organizations has become paramount. Enalis Inc., one of the companies that adopted Kogure's training in 2024, has observed transformative changes:

"There was a prevailing sentiment in our company where the management's 'correctness' failed to resonate with employees. After participating in Kogure's training, our leadership enhanced their ability to explain why specific policies are in place, resulting in greater engagement and proactive behavior within the team." (Executive comment from Enalis)

Kogure's Insight

Kogure emphasizes a crucial point: "Creating a purpose is futile unless it translates into action. Developing 'articulate leaders' is essential in guiding the organization towards the intended vision. This course serves as a practical program for restructuring governance through effective communication."
