Where do we start?

The first consultation and needs assessment are free. We listen to your challenges and goals, then propose what fits best.

We are not an IT company and are uneasy with IT and AI. Is this for us?

Yes. You choose a starting point by situation, not by industry. Customized training that starts from everyday work situations rather than jargon can be built from scratch on request.

See the starting points
How much effort is involved?

Five steps: inquiry → needs assessment → proposal and quote → contract → start.

What is the difference between training and coaching?

Training is where you learn clear theory; coaching is support grounded in your reality. Choose theory only, coaching only, or both — within your budget.

See the three models
Can just a few people take part?

For one or a few people learning the theory, use our public courses: Scrum Alliance® certified, Certified LeSS, Systems Thinking and more. Private courses held only for your company or group have different requirements from public courses, so please contact us for details.

For budget holders

Budget holders

How much does it cost?

We do not publish prices. After a needs assessment we quote individually, within your budget. The first consultation is free. Public course fees are shown on the booking site.

Can we start small?

One or a few people can start with a public course. For in-house training or coaching, we propose the group size and duration after a first conversation.

Can public subsidies apply?

Some clients have used public training subsidies for our courses.

Eligibility and application procedures should be confirmed with your regional Labour Bureau or a licensed labor and social security attorney. We do not guarantee that a subsidy will be granted.

Do you support invoice payment and Japan’s qualified invoice system?

We accept payment by invoice and issue qualified invoices under Japan's invoice system. Payment terms are confirmed with your quotation.

What do you need for a quote?

As a guide: the number and roles of participants, the goal, preferred timing and a rough budget make a concrete proposal possible — but you can contact us without them.

For decision-makers

Decision-makers

Why invest in people now?

Spending that raises people’s knowledge and skills can be treated as investment (Becker 1964), and investment in development and the working environment is something employees can read as a sign that they are valued (Eisenberger et al. 1986). We do not promise outcome figures.

How is this different from methods that are in fashion?

The foundation is established theory from organization studies, psychology and learning science. Scrum, LeSS and AI adoption are treated as leading applications of it. No folk laws or unsourced statistics.

Do you support anything beyond Agile and Scrum?

Yes — education and coaching for deciding organizational structure with theory, and building a culture that masters its tools, delivered through our existing services (customized training, coaching, Systems Thinking).

What is your track record?

Over 20 years of Agile and Scrum practice, over 450 client companies, and more than 16,000 graduates of Scrum Alliance® certified training — across a wide range of industries including insurance, energy, manufacturing, printing and information services, internet services, robotics, games and healthcare.

Can you help us adopt AI itself?

We do not sell an AI-specific product. We support "organizations where everyone can think" and "a culture that masters its tools" through our existing training and coaching.
