The myth of Japanese management has gone largely unchallenged worldwide. Born in the writings of foreign observers, this myth unduly glorifies the advantages of Japanese management and quickly passes over its disadvantages.

In this work. Kunio Odaka analyzes the myth and exposes a number of critical defects in the way traditional Japanese management practices work. This is not, however, a rejectionist criticism of Japanese management. Rather, It is an ambitious critique pinpointing the problems and proposing ways to reform Japanese management for the emerging post industrial society of future
