Description

According to the Foreign Investment Agency (FIA), up to 2022, Japan has invested in 19 industries and fields in Vietnam and it becomes one of the leading foreign investors. In the long run, Japanese companies could become long-term reliable partners for Vietnamese businesses.

However, as the Japanese have certain unique business customs, many non-Japanese may not be familiar with these forms of communication, working culture, or business etiquette. In addition, Japanese companies tend to trust businesses that understand Japanese culture, not only the service qualities and prices.

In this training program, in 1 hour, KPMG's Japan desk provides a description of Japanese cultural characteristics, common preferences and issues for working with Japanese companies.

After completing this session you will be able to understand: 
— Japanese business culture
 Typical challenges that non-Japanese usually face in common
