Going Global? Strategizing Ideology and Practice in a Japanese Subsidiary

Abstract: Abstract The ‘globalization of Japanese management’ and ‘adaptation of western business practices’ among Japanese corporations in world markets, have become common arguments within business literature. The prevailing practices and mind-set of Japanese management, it is argued, create substantial barriers for the performance and success of Japanese companies, as many are still concentrated on preserving certain human relationships, rather than focus on performance and competitiveness, requiring high levels of integration, and local responsiveness to establish successful operations in global markets (Campell and Holden, 1993; Bartlett and Ghoshal, 2000; Jackson and Tomioka, 2004).
