The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

As it becomes increasingly difficult to secure talented personnel at overseas locations, Japanese managers stationed abroad who lead local teams need the English communication skills to build trust with local staff from different cultural and professional backgrounds and bring their organizations together. The program addresses practical challenges that are difficult to cover through general business English training, including performance reviews, feedback for subordinates, setting expectations for roles and responsibilities, and handling problems.
