Laboratory for Designing Environment for People

For creating an environment where each and every person can thrive and grow.

Do you remember the success of the Japan national rugby team in the 2019 Rugby World Cup, the Japan women's basketball team in the 2021 Olympics, and the Japan national soccer team in the upcoming 2022 World Cup? Despite not having all superstar players, these teams achieved great results. So, what is the key to their success? The answer lies in how they utilize their team members' strengths. How can we create an environment where each individual can be happy and fully demonstrate their abilities? This laboratory focuses on creating a "place" where each member belonging to the organization can excel and developing mechanisms and systems to nurture each individual. 研究室HP: https://katokyo-lab.net/
