| Jan 15, 2014 at 7:02 | comment | added | jmac | It was probably a combination of lack of incentive from their organizations to use it, lack of motivation for self-learning, lack of visible improvement to management, and lack of champions within the organization showing them what it can do. Larger Japanese companies are really "grass roots" and require individuals to champion anything new and create use cases that get management to enforce use on the apathetic masses. There are a lot of social/cultural reasons that things are that way, but no matter how good a system is, change is a tricky thing to tackle. | |

Would you say then you suspect that they weren't promoted or designed correctly, and it wasn't really a cultural thing after all? I'm really interested in anything you've got to say on it, given your location :) | |

People are assumed to come in to their job with zero knowledge when they start out, and are openly encouraged to admit what they don't understand and struggle to find the answers much of the time. | |
