Working Group "Intercultural Management": Resilience & Work Life Balance

DJW members Dr. Rolf D. Schlunze and Carsten Watanabe would like to invite you to contribute to the DJW Working Group "Intercultural Management". In our working group, we aim at discussing various intercultural aspects of working in a Japanese-German business environment. The DJW Working Group "Intercultural Management" meets on regular basis to discuss the topic of intercultural competence.

This session is set just before the annual O-Bon season and in the German holiday season, which will be a great time to catch up with family and ideally stay away from work. However, while the workgroup meeting might be closer to work we are happy that most  participants and the organizers always spend their free time participating. As such we deemed this time ideal to talk about the challenges of Work-life-balance in Japanese and German corporations as well as multicultural teams and organizations.

We will be touching on topics such as Resilience, Antifragility and Stress Management and hope that, as usual, a lively discussion is going to develop. For more in-depth questions, or if you wish to establish a focus group, please contact us on the below email.

Meeting Flow

During our meetings all participants are invited to share their opinion and alternative solutions on these issues. Participants have an opportunity to relate to each other selecting the next speaker themselves. We like to encourage everybody to contribute with your own experiences bettering our intercultural competence.
