Guest Keynote: Workstyle Innovation for High-Performance and Creative Organizations — Leveraging DX, Psychological Safety, and Sleep for Sustainable Growth —
Yoshie Komuro,
Work-Life Balance Co., Ltd. / Founder and CEO,
Organizations that have reformed their workstyles are seeing tangible improvements: reduced turnover, higher motivation among younger employees, and stronger business performance. These outcomes are not incidental, but the result of deliberate strategies that enhance both productivity and creativity.
This lecture explores why workstyle innovation contributes directly to organizational success, and how leaders can foster environments where flexibility and inclusion—such as enabling paternity leave—are standard. Crucially, the session moves beyond simplistic time-reduction approaches, focusing instead on sustainable transformation rooted in digital enablement, psychological safety, and sleep science.
Drawing from extensive consulting experience with over 3,000 companies across diverse sectors, we will share practical methods and real-world examples that executives can implement immediately to drive meaningful and lasting change. ... Show More Show Less
