JAPAN — DEVELOPING FOR THE FUTURE

Abstract

Japan is aiming at technological leadership, and has a clear and coherent policy for achieving it, which involves increasing investment in education, training and R&D. The scale of the training effort creates the organisational climate conducive to the acceptance of change. Examples are given of the volume of in‐company training, for instance on brainstorming, and of retraining electronic engineers for biotechnology.
