This is the HARD TRUTH for Japanese MNCs.
The author warns that there will be no success for Japanese MNCs without becoming passport blind relative to who they identify and develop as gobal leaders.
On average Japanese are some of the most risk-averse people in the world. On average the Japanese are more than twice as risk-averse as the Americans and British, 40% more risk-averse as Germans, and 7% more risk-averse as the French.
Four stages on the path to Globalization
1. Domestic focus 2. Export 3.Regional Focus (Globallocalization)
4. Borderless global business → Some things are globally integrated and standardized in thought and action, while some are locally differentiated in thought and action. It also means that there are still other things that are a hybrid or blend of both.
One of the first drivers of innovation in business is diversity. If the conflicts,disagreements,etc. that the diversity sparks are well managed, then diverse groups actually outperform more homogeneous groups in terms of innovation.Thus the second thing we know about the key drivers of innovation is that effective leadership of the innovators is critical to success.
These leaders need a combination of skills. First,they need significant interpersonal and group management skills in areas such as drawing out contributions and thoughts and managing conflicts. Secong,they must be able to periodically remind and keep the group on task. Third, the leaders of innovative groups need a high degree of self-awareness in terms of their own strengthens, weaknesses,biases, and tendencies.
You may have some innate curiosity or interpersonal skills, but without some experience, training, and coaching, you are unlikely to walk away with any innovation performance records.
