After being posted in Singapore and the United States for 9 years, Resonac Holdings Corporation President Takahashi Hidehito (高橋秀仁) joined GE and studied human resources, and sets out his outlook for the revival of Japanese companies.
It is explained that, after making extended business trips to Singapore and the United States and developing insights into Japanese companies, he joined GE and studied human resources. This experience led him to believe that Japanese companies could regain their strength by reforming their management.
After returning to Japan, he was assigned to the M&A division of Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi (at the time), where he gained experience in corporate integration and restructuring, according to the article.
The article also mentions an episode in which a colleague from the same graduating cohort received a recruiting email from GE, presenting it as an event that marked a turning point in his career.
