Crosscultural Business Consultant/Trainer
Japan
Shintaro currently provides crosscultural business advice, consulting and training to native English speaking business people. Training includes "Effective Presentation for Japanese Business People", "Crosscultural Communication with Japanese Business People" and "Win-win Negotiation with Japanese Business People". On the other hand, he provides crosscultural training to Japanese business people who are engaged in cross-border business.
All programs that Shintaro produces are based on his empirical, down-to-earth, practical international business experiences for more than 30 years. He has analyzed such experiences and elicited important elements existing in actual crosscultural business. They are utilized in the programs that Shintaro has made by himself. One of the strongest features is that his programs are not created from armchair theories but practical and actual business experiences of his own through mingling and struggling with a variety of business people in the world. Therefore, the benefits that the attendees can get from Shintaro's training are "effective, practical and useful solutions", which can be immediately applied to the business in relation to Japanese business people.
