Toward Transcultural Learning and the Rise of “Empathia”

Nobuyuki Chikudate

Chapter Chapter 9 in Collective Myopia in Japanese Organizations, 2015, pp 181-190 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The challenge of this book is whether non-Japanese readers can make sense of the theoretical discussions and can transpose what they discover and learn from this book into their own contexts. The content of some of my descriptions and narratives would never happen to in the workplaces of different countries. However, even though the detailed contexts as described in this book were not the same, it would be possible to apply the concepts and theoretical terms that were developed by me for other contexts. This means that although the detailed and minute contextual nuances would be different, some of us as human beings living in in the dangerous stage of modernization may have already experienced similar events. Beyond the intricate difference across cultures, time may have ripened to create common lessons. The failures of entire systems in other industrialized societies become the lessons for other societies. What do we call it when we teach lessons across time and spatial dimension? How does the knowledge transfer across time and spatial dimension occur?
