Each organization regularly conducts end-of-quarter and kickoff meetings and other events. The details and format of these meetings vary by organization, but they include sharing of business performance and the organization’s status, awards, and various other content. They are an opportunity for members to grasp the current state and future direction of each organization, and increase their sense of ownership.

The frequency and method vary by organization, but a message is sent out regularly to members from the top management of each organization. Sending out messages tailored to the situation of each organization, as well as messages from the Group’s senior management, helps unify direction at the organizational level and creates a sense of belonging.
