Organizational culture reform through the company-wide reform project "Team Sousei (Creation)"

"Team Sousei (Creation)" is a company-wide reform project led by the president and composed of volunteers selected through internal recruitment. The aims are to foster the culture "Employees feel that they can consult with their superiors," "failures are tolerated," and "problems are solved together." In Fiscal 2023, the project's second year, "revitalizing communication" was positioned as a top priority for organizational culture reform, and measures were implemented to deepen understanding of what the term "psychological safety" means. We will continue to make efforts to promote the understanding that a high level of psychological safety is essential to organizational development and to have this awareness deeply take root.

Information about "Team Sousei (Creation)" activities is posted as necessary to the company website so that all employees can check the current status and share comments.

Key measures implemented
Activities to change awareness and behavior, such as on why psychological safety is necessary, throughout the company from the top down:

  • The "Psychological Safety Guidelines" rolled out company-wide as the ideal interpersonal relationships to achieve in our company
