About this listen
In Resolute Japan, Waseda University's Jusuke J. J. Ikegami and the Wharton School's Harbir Singh and Michael Useem reveal a new leadership model that has led Japan's corporations to make a stunning comeback. In the process, they share what they have learned from interviews with more than 100 CEOs and top executives of Japan's largest and most influential companies, including Hitachi, Honda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, NTT, and Panasonic.
In this book, you will discover how Japan's new leadership model has led to superior performance in the stock market and beyond; the core principles and practices that characterize Japan's new leadership model and how they differ from the old models; how Japan's new leadership model enables companies to balance multiple and often conflicting objectives, such as shareholder value and social responsibility, short-term results and long-term growth, and agility and stability; how Japan's new leadership model fosters innovation, resilience, and competitiveness in a rapidly changing global environment; and more.
Resolute Japan offers a rare and insightful perspective on the new corporate fabric of Japan, one that is sure to both challenge and enlighten leaders around the world.

A Fascinating if Booster-ish Examination of Recent Japanese Corporate Management
This book is combines excellent qualitative interviews with leadership of large Japanese firms with macro quantitative data on CEO career trajectories and corporate governance metrics to provide a holistic view of the Japanese organizational management landscape. While sometimes veering a bit more into boosterism than I'd like, this book strongly demonstrates the unique characteristics of modern Japanese management, how it differs from models dominant in North America and Europe, and how those differences can drive better outcomes. I do wish there was a bit more engagement with the still nagging problems of Japanese management styles, particularly speed of decision making. Overall, however, both practitioners and academics would do well to pick up this essential book. Highly recommend
