​Kumano x  Innovation
IMG_4385.jpg

Now, attention is focused on Japanese Shinto. The reason was the time when Shinto was believed, and people could not survive without helping each other in a harsh natural environment. It was a time when people were in harmony with each other and helped each other. In that, nature was regarded as "God."

Until now, business has been a model of competing and competing for market share, but in the era of Reiwa, when the world situation changes drastically such as environmental problems, pandemics and wars, instead of competing, it is in the same way of thinking as Shinto. There is a need for a business that aims for harmony with eight million gods who are connected to each other.

In times of turmoil, business models that accumulate left-brain logic are reaching their limits. It is time to cherish Shinto values and regain the "Sampo good" business of coexistence and co-prosperity in Japanese.

Using the innovation-creating methods that zenschool has cultivated so far, meditation that walks in the magnificent nature of Kumano from early morning, renting an inn in Kumano, where the World Heritage Kumano Kodo is located, to create a business that creates business that aims for harmony. It will be a plan to carry out innovation and business creation by borrowing ancient Japanese wisdom while preparing the spirit through dialogue and dialogue.

​Why is innovation in Kumano?

Developed over a decade to create endogenous motivational innovators like Steve Jobs
True Innovation® Theory-based program

This program was born out of a 10-year trial-and-error process of eliciting intrinsic motives within an individual through mindfulness meditation, thorough self-disclosure, and deep dialogue. , It is operated based on the original innovation theory "True Innovation®" theory.

​ Through thorough self-disclosure, we will hold a reflecting talk in a place of absolute psychological safety. After that, we take out the product concept based on the intrinsic motivation, make a business plan, make a prototype and realize it. By following up on the extracted concept through a dialogue with us, we will implement the organization and promote commercialization within the business entity of the company.

Presentation

Presentation time is 10 minutes + Q & A 10 minutes. Unlike a normal business plan contest, you can gather people who sympathize with the business on the spot, do team building, and take "temporary orders" from participants for products and services that you are immediately interested in on the spot. We have prepared a mechanism like this.
In addition, we ask all participants to sign a confidentiality oath so that their intellectual property will not be leaked to the outside.

follow up

Follow-up will start immediately after the recital. For the next 6 months, we will follow up on the progress of the business online or in Kamakura using zoom for about 1 hour every month.
フォローアップ@鎌倉

enmono  Did you have any problems as a company because you contacted us?
Kajikawa      There are a lot of challenges, but I went through another well-behaved seminar, and I didn't know what to do, but I couldn't see the next development, so it was just an experience. So I said, "I will participate" because it's okay if it doesn't work.
