I'd love to hear your views on exactly why the above is so prevalent among
Japanese businesses. Knowing what I do of Japanese culture I would think
that these businesses would realize that their stubbornness and
unwillingness to do anything new or slightly radical is highly
counterproductive and hurts their ability to not only survive but also
thrive. I'd think they'd take a hard look at their bottom lines and come to
the realization that what they're doing isn't working.
