[Background of Publishing]
The relative position of Japanese companies in the global economy has declined since its peak during the bubble of the late 1980s. In addition, the declining birthrate and aging population has put the future of the Japanese economy and society in jeopardy. On the other hand, internet and digital technology companies established in the United States since the 1990s have become world leaders.
With these things in mind, author Masayuki Chatanii, who has previously served as CTO and EVP of Sony’s PlayStation division, executive officer of AI at Rakuten, CDO of KPMG Japan, CEO of KPMG’s digital subsidiary KPMG Ignition Tokyo, and Japan Head of Build by McKinsey of McKinsey ‘& Company, has found that there are many business people in Japan who want to break away from the status quo. He has decided to pass on his suggestions for the next generation who will create new value in the future, based on his 30-plus years of experience in cutting-edge technology development and digital business management.
Having held multiple CxO positions, including CEO, CTO, and CDO, and having worked at companies including Sony and Rakuten, and professional services firms such as KPMG and McKinsey, the author hopes that this book of practical, broad-ranging, and in-depth recommendations will be of use to leaders aspiring to become CxOs in the future.
The “A Compass for Leaders who Create the Future” trilogy will be available in both physical and digital formats through Amazon in the following countries: United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Brazil (eBook only), Canada, Mexico (eBook only), Australia, India (eBook only), Poland (eBook only), and Sweden (eBook only).
