Cultivation of Future Leaders

Co-Creation Management Academy

MARUI GROUP unveiled its Co-Creation Management Academy management training program in April 2017 with the aim of cultivating human resources capable of promoting management reforms for driving ongoing improvements in corporate value. This program is based on open application, and each year 20 candidates are selected from among volunteers. Those selected are submitted to a one-year training curriculum developed under the guidance of external directors to instill in them a management perspective. Participants continue to be nurtured into future leaders through their actual work even after the program is completed.

Through the Co-Creation Management Academy program, MARUI GROUP is working to discover and cultivate younger and female employees as candidates for officer positions.
