TRIAL CLASS: Coto Business Communications School
April 14 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
What’s CBCS?
Coto Business Communications School is Coto Academy’s new venture that is purely dedicated to professionals who aim to improve their communication skills in Business Japanese.
Foreign professionals who can work with Japanese colleagues, superiors, and customers are not just people who can speak Japanese but are people who can gain the trust of others, involve others, and communicate in a way that moves and motivates others.
In order for foreign professionals to achieve this, awareness of the Japanese culture, having a mindset in business situations similar to the Japanese, and having communication skills for meetings, negotiations, and other situations are vital.
This is where CBCS comes in – to give you the support you need in order to excel in your career in Japan.

Class Content: Working in Japan – 1
In this module, we will discuss the characteristics of the Japanese people in order to have a better understanding of what kind of communication will be the most effective.
What is behind the culture of avoiding conflict? Why are words of apology often used? What is the virtue of humility in Japanese culture? These are things that are not taught in normal Japanese classes.
