VP Advisors K.K. to start offering unconscious bias training
2021-10-30
Japan has seen major growth over the last 10 years or so in terms of gender equality and diversity, mainly thanks to the 2015 corporate governance code reforms by the Abe government. Japanese corporations are now expected to adhere to the corporate governance code, implement a diverse workforce and provide a level playing field regardless of age, race, disability or gender. Diversity and inclusion initiatives are becoming more mainstream but are Japanese corporations really adapting to the changing requirements or just ticking boxes on the surface?
VP Advisors K.K. will now start offering Unconscious Bias training in Japanese in partnership with Unconscious Bias Laboratory.
