BJA Exclusive Workshop - Synergizing cross-cultural business communication

The BJA Membership Committee is thrilled to welcome you to a special 60th anniversary event celebrating our cultures – an interactive business communication workshop. This event offers a unique opportunity for Japanese and non-Japanese participants to come together, have an open discussion and learn how to best communicate and work with each other.

The objectives of the workshop are to increase mutual understanding of other business cultures, to identify challenges and discuss about possible solutions, and to provide efficient communication tools to work better together – all via practical tools and insightful testimonials.
