In the modern age, English is the language of global commerce and international culture. In Japan, English has been both a nemesis and a tool for self-expression for many people over the years. In fact, the business of teaching English in Japan is a mature, multi-million dollar affair. Russell Willis takes us on a journey into the heart of Japan’s business of English language education. The online portal he started in 2000, eigoTown.com, is Japan’s premier portal site for everything related to English for Japanese job-seekers, teachers, students – the full spectrum of English language-based travel, relationships, culture, and more. This show will give you a unique, informed perspective on what it takes to create ongoing success in this tough, mature, and vital market. </a>

When you walk into a bank, you expect to see: tellers, customers, ATMscomputers, guards, rates posted, specials, etc. etc. But, suppose, for a moment, that you came equipped with Superman’s X-Ray vision – what would you see if you looked deeper into the bank? Doubtless you’d see the vault where the money is kept. But, don’t stop there: go deeper, down to the real backbone of the bank, the physical and IT infrastructure that keeps the crucial information flowing.  That’s where Alain takes us in this wide-ranging discussion. We learn how strong project management practices in IT, infrastructure, and other services are key to success in such industries as: finance, insurance, telecommunications, life sciences, travel, manufacturing, retail, and more. </a>]]>

Business is driven by the decisions we make in that large, mysterious organ in our skulls – but what drives us to make the decisions we do? What drives impulse? What drives impulse taken to extremes – otherwise known as addiction? Dr. Murphy leads Terri through the fascinating ins and outs of our appetites, why we crave pleasurable experiences and what happens when our cravings go out of balance. He explores our dual-brained nature, and gives us a grounding in the evolutionary nature of pleasure. Food for thought, from the Riken Brain Science Institute.

In this comprehensive, philosophical and stimulating interview, Tom Wedgwood takes Peter (and us!) on a journey to the roots of his family business’ founder, Josiah Wedgwood, the ardent abolitionist, humanitarian, and early viral marketing expert. From these distinguished roots, we learn about what Wedgwood has become, implementing Josiah’s core values in the modern age: innovation in invention, in care for employees, and in CSR, as well as in being the ‘superbrand’ English ceramic maker in the world.

John and Peter have a very focused, information-rich conversation about the meaning and significance of the GAP brand in Japan. In a relaxed conversation, surrounded by stylish, comfortable clothing, John explains: where the name GAP came from, his (brand-new!) innovative approach to changing employee work habits for a more effective work/life balance, the company’s participation in Bono’s RED campaign, bringing the iconic brand to a new culture, and much, much more.

There is something infectious about talking with a person who loves their work. In this informative conversation, Charles tells Peter how Continental Japan became the ‘hometown airline’ in more cities in Japan than any of its rivals – even though it’s a foreign company. He describes their innovative, niche-oriented promotional strategies in each market. We talk about entertainment systems and the differences between airlines, special programs that help to cement long term relationships, and the ins and outs of making their services truly multilingual. Charles shares with us Continental’s can-do, employee-central philosophy, which was hard-won after the airline bottomed out and found it’s way back to a positive balance.

In a community-driven culture like Japan’s, Amway’s relationship-oriented approach to marketing high quality personal and home care products comes naturally. But that doesn’t make it easy, and Terry White tells us how Amway has created a long-lived, sustainable, and very, very large business in Japan.

What’s the secret to Amway’s success? Is it the products, formulated for local tastes? Is it longevity – they’ve been in the Japanese market for 30 years. Terry also talks about the effect of the internet on Amway’s business. “…Currently our digital sales would be in the order of 40% of that $1 billion, higher, edging up towards 50%, which makes us one of the largest internet trading companies in Japan…”

‘We’re surrounded by penguins!’ That’s the way Russell began this interview, and he was right. Not only penguins, but Thomas the Tank Engine, and Bob the Builder, and many more charming pre-school toys, plus beautiful versions of The Guiness Book of Records (including a wondering one created by blind people in Japan, for blind people!). 

In this charming conversation, Frank explains the ins and outs of marketing both the blockbusters like Thomas (everyone who needs to know who Thomas is, in Japan, does), and up-and-comers like Angelina Ballerina. They cover such issues as: why didn’t a Japanese company see the possibilities in a train toy, the perils and possibilities of TV, marketing to such a quality and character-oriented society, and much, much more.</a>]]>

Confirming that Japan is vital as a trend-setting nation, as well as being the world’s second-largest economy, David gives us a wide-ranging conversation on: what mothers and fathers in Japan really want; since we are humans not wallets, what actually drives us; an interesting take on the power (or lack thereof) of the internet: the prevalence of the ‘silo’ mentality in Japanese corporations and some of McCann’s innovative research initiatives, including the Pulse program and Coolhunting. A must-listen for anyone who cares about the future of advertising and communications in a wired world.</a>]]>

Peter Barakan interviews Daniel Edwards, Office Managing Partner, Heidrick & Struggles Japan

If you read the business press, you constantly see CEO’s, CFO’s, and other high-level people moving from major corporation to major corporation. Of course, this is also true in Japan, not only as the world’s second-largest economy, but as a place where foreign companies have operated successfully for many years. Have you ever wondered how those jobs materialize, and how successful high level managers find their new homes? In this interview, Daniel gives us his insight into the behind-the-scenes world of high level recruitment in Japan, including a surprising New Delhi component!

Peter Barakan interviews David Blume, Managing Director, Jaguar and Land Rover Japan.

This conversation was especially fun for Peter, who’s a Jaguar fan and someone who has for many years been fluent in written and spoken Japanese, as has David. Not only did they discuss the state of the automotive industry in Japan, including the challenge of environmentally friendly fuel, but they also talked, in details about the intricacies of communicating with more than words, in a second language. David suggested an apt metaphor for dealing with conversations in Japanese as a foreigner: “skipping stones”. And they talk about the element of trust that’s necessary in bicultural business relationships.
For those of you who are studying Japanese, or who are already fluent, we have a special treat for you on our blog, that came out of this stimulating conversation. http://blog.eigotown.com/terri_kayo/

        <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.eigopod2.com/nikkeius/NWI14EPV1.m4a">Peter Barakan interviews David Price, Managing Director of global recruiting giant Robert Half Japan. 

In this candid conversation, David explains the ins and outs of the great opportunities that exist in Japan for foreign and bilingual Japanese who understand high level financial and accounting on a global scale. The exposure and stockholder outrage over corporate scandals in the U.S. was mirrored by scandals and consequences in Japan. As a result, Japan’s Financial Instruments and Exchange Law (nicknamed ‘J-Sox’) was put into place in 2006. It has been dubbed the Japanese version of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Japanese Financial Services Agency gives detailed instructions for Japanese companies on how they must report and what they must report.
The necessity for a high level of expertise in this area is more critical now because J-Sox will go into law in 2008 – and Japan does not have the number of qualified people it needs to deal with these requirements. And, as David notes, this is just one example of the need for strong upper-level management recruiting. Creative positions are also becoming contract positions. In short, the world of recruiting is moving fast, and Japan, as the world’s second-largest economy, must ramp up to compete in these areas.

        <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.eigopod2.com/nikkei/NWI13EPV1.m4a">Peter Barakan interviews Robert Pickard President, North Asia, Edelman Public Relations Japan. 

Bob gives us a rare look at the struggles and triumphs of Japanese companies who are trying to communicate effectively to non-Japanese audiences. Many are taking grassroots marketing seriously for the first time. Many are trying to find ways to get past their normal ‘top-down’ information style. 
One quote tells a lot of the story: “…there’s a ‘generation gap’ in Japan and a lot of the younger executives -- who through the rotation system spent some time in Europe or the United States -- can see the power of marketing, the power of new ideas in public relations, to move people, to create markets and to create a buzz where none existed before.  

Now they are assigned overseas, but they come home to Japan, where we have had domination of marketing by the Dentsu model, where advertising and the power of advertisers has been far more important and controlling than the earned media coverage that public relations people undertake on behalf of clients.

Around the world, public relations is regarded as a profession.  In Japan, it’s not so much so because marketing is more understood as an advertising thing, a paid for thing, but that's changing now…”
