Shinrai: Japanese Corporate Integrity in a Disintegrating Europe

Shinrai: Japanese Corporate Integrity in a Disintegrating Europe [2019] looks at the challenges that Japanese companies have faced in Europe over the past 15 years and what the future holds for them in a region which seems to be disintegrating thanks to the rise of populism.

It gives recommendations on how Japanese companies should approach hiring, retaining and managing employees, marketing, acquisitions and corporate governance and what can they (and Europeans working with them) do to build trusted brands.

Pernille Rudlin shares her observations on working for or with hundreds of Japanese companies over the past 30 years in an edited collection of articles written for publications such as the Nikkei Weekly and Teikoku Databank News, giving practical steps on how to build trust between Japanese and European business cultures.
