| Tiivistelmä: | Takeo Fujisawa's contention regarding the similarity between Japanese and American business seems to be overstated. The degree of dissimilarity in both corporate environments and corporate characteristics appears to be significant. There are many essential differences in almost all dimensions. Japanese emphasis on knowledge (human capital), integration, just-in-time, long-term perspective, process, quality, self-management, and teamwork is fundamentally different and even antithetical to emphasis on labor, specialization, just-in-case, short-term perspective, product, quantity, hierarchical command and unions. The issue whether or not there are some Japanese features that could be adapted to selected USA situations is examined. |
