Announcing the second webinar of the Inclusive Environment series!

Report on the first session in the series, "Building a Winning Team"

In the first session of its Inclusive Environment webinar series, the Global Frontier Network (GFN) invited members of the Negotiation Club, which recently won the world renowned "The Negotiation Challenge," to share their experience of building their team and leading it to success against teams of other prestigious institutions.

The virtual event was held on June 7th over Zoom and was joined by twelve participants, including current students of our school, alumni, professionals from Japan and South Africa, and undergraduate students from Sophia University in Tokyo.

The speakers discussed the importance of recognizing leadership moments for each of their members depending on the type of leader the circumstances required, and how they were able to take advantage of their differing perspectives in order to adapt to any situation. They fielded questions from the participants about the challenge of transitioning from internal to external communication as a team moving from the training and preparation stage to the competition stage.

The webinar was a spirited exploration of the type of team dynamic that achieves results by making the most of every member's abilities.

Information on the next session in the series, "Entrepreneurial Team-Building"!

Whether you are leading a new project or a new organization, the collective entrepreneurial mindset of a cohesive team is essential to bring forth and create changes.

Such an entrepreneurial journey can find its roots at various stages, from laying down new foundations to turning around an existing enterprise. While there is no one-stop solution to building and developing an entrepreneurial team, we can certainly draw inspiration from an impactful case study.

A new startup, ElevEight Tech Inc., was officially incorporated following their participation in the final round of the Japan Business Model Competition, bringing to life their team project. Developing two services, FEMDP & Flash*, we will explore their entrepreneurial journey of building their team, growing from a competition to an actual startup while wading through social and cultural challenges.
