From 4 to 8 December, NYK held Global NYK Group Week 2023, a training program at the Tokyo head office for 15 nominated locally hired staff from NYK Group companies around the world. The goals of the training are to build global networks within the Group, reaffirm the mission, vision, and values* of the NYK Group, and increase commitment in business operations and loyalty to the NYK Group through direct dialogue with the NYK president and management. Participants attended leadership training conducted by an outside instructor and engaged in group work on innovation methods presented by the NYK Digital Academy.** Moreover, a group discussion was held with NYK President Takaya Soga and other executives on the theme of the medium-term management plan,*** reaffirming the importance of conducting daily work with the management plan’s action guidelines always in mind. On the last day, participants visited historic shrines and temples in Kyoto and experienced Zen meditation to deepen their understanding of Japanese culture. We hope the participants share their experiences with their workplace colleagues to help the organization develop. One of the management strategies in our medium-term management plan is CX (corporate transformation), providing training and opportunities for Group employees to grow as individuals and as an organization. We will continue to generate further co-creation by maximizing the individual abilities of Group employees in Japan and overseas to further our aim to be a corporate group that continues to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society.
