Fundamentals for management 바카라 규칙 corporate behavior (Tsunekazu Sakano) 1980

Creativity, Courage 바카라 규칙 Confidence

Japan’s economic policies took a turnaround to control inflation 바카라 규칙 in less than a year’s time the official discount rate was raised five times.

바카라 규칙

In June 1986, Nippon Kayaku created a new corporate symbol on the 70th anniversary of its founding. This served as the starting point for business activities moving toward the 21st century.
The two circles represent interaction between people 바카라 규칙 the trust between the Company 바카라 규칙 society. The space in the middle signifies the world, Earth, 바카라 규칙 the universe. The two elliptical shapes represent our two major technologies—pharmaceuticals 바카라 규칙 chemicals. They are shown as soaring to represent constant creativity 바카라 규칙 challenge.

바카라 규칙 spirit(Koichiro Shimada) 2007

바카라 규칙

It became clear that to be a winner, it was necessary to capture markets in countries 바카라 규칙 regions that boasted high economic growth. Along with an increase in the number of overseas subsidiaries, the Nippon Kayaku Group evolved into a global corporation consisting of 57 group companies worldwide, including six domestic factories 바카라 규칙 four domestic research labs. Meanwhile, global markets began to change at an even faster pace 바카라 규칙 competition between companies became even more intense. Companies looking to remain in the race had to be able to keep up with this speed. In light with this thinking 바카라 규칙 to efficiently address market changes, Koichiro Shimada, the eighth president of Nippon Kayaku, executed theKAYAKU spirit(corporate vision) in June 2007. The goal was to get all employees to move in the same direction (vector) as the Nippon Kayaku Group.
TheKAYAKU spiritstates the Group’s goal of providing the best products through ceaseless progress 바카라 규칙 the combined forces of our consciences. The “combined forces of our consciences” is unique to the Nippon Kayaku Group. It means that all Group employees share the same vectors 바카라 규칙 collectively work together (be of the same spirit) to produce good products.
In 2009, theKAYAKU Spiritwas redefined as “continuously providing society with the best products through ordinary progress 바카라 규칙 the combined forces of our consciences.” This reflects our goal to fulfill our corporate social responsibilities while overcoming intense competition with rivals to sustain our existence.
