B2B E-Commerce: How Build Business Relationships in Japan
- 1. ECN B2B E-Commerce: How to Build Appropriate Japanese Business Relationships Author: Kouhei Kurihara
- 2. ECN Japanese Business Relationships There are certain codes to follow when working with Japanese businesses: Value Teamwork Respect the Hierarchy Don’t be too direct This might be difficult to gain a handle on at first, but it’s worth it to try.
- 3. ECN #1. Value Teamwork In school, Japanese students are taught to work as a team rather than working individually. Rather than praising the efforts of one over another, the idea is to stimulate the group as a whole. A group of students or workers is only as good as the weakest link. This idea transfers into the workplace.
- 4. ECN #2. Respect the Hierarchy Hierarchy is very important in Japan, even from a young age: Top management always defines the rules which determines all business decisions. These decisions are not questioned, despite rising talent. It’s important to respect this hierarchy when conducting business in B2B.
- 5. ECN #3. Don’t be too Direct In many Eastern cultures, being too direct may be a bit rude. Japanese people don’t dare speak their thoughts boldly. You must be less direct to express your thoughts implicitly. Japanese executives take longer to collaboratively find a concensus. Disagreement is expressed discreetly.
- 6. ECN Conclusion It’s important to adapt to your target market, not only in the B2C market but also in the B2B partnerships you wish to make.
