In the Japanese company the quality of the education and training resources available for management is regarded as crucial. This book provides perhaps the most detailed and comprehensive explanation in English to date of how the Japanese train and develop their managers. What influence do government and leading economic organisations have on the system of management education? Will the principle of lifelong adult education be affected by the possible vulnerability of the concept of lifetime single-company employment? What are the dynamics of Japanese management structures, how do the hierarchies operate and what is the decision-making process? How does management recruitment work, job rotation, evaluation and promotion? What are the forms and methods of in-company education and training and how important are external training organisations and why? How will Japanese management education and training practices evolve in the 1990s? These and numerous related questions are answered in this impressive book, the author of which has studied original Japanese source material and undertaken an extensive programme of interviews in Japan.
