Case Study
The following is a recent example from one of our clients and how they bundled services to fully support the success of their business and employees.
Client
Consumer Products Company
Scenario
A US-based company was in the process of opening a manufacturing plant in Japan. They sent employees from different backgrounds to the new plant to assist with the set-up and training of local employees. Most of them did not speak Japanese nor had worked with Japanese colleagues in person.
In order for the plant opening to be successful and as smooth as possible, three key areas of need were identified:
- The current employees going to Japan needed to understand the culture in order to navigate cultural differences effectively and lay the foundation for long-term success.
- The employees needed to begin learning the Japanese language and industry-specific vocabulary.
- The employees and their families relocating to Japan needed to be fully supported so they could have more success and less stress with the move.
