Japanese business culture and etiquette

Decoding the Japanese Workplace: The Unwritten Rules of Business Culture

Master business etiquette, build immediate trust and accelerate your professional career in Japan with the NyuuLy community. Join this highly interactive, hands-on workshop to uncover the crucial, unwritten corporate practices that standard textbooks never teach you—all while making new connections over fresh pizza.

  • Master the physical mechanics of exchanging business cards (meishi), including correct finger placement, card height and reciprocal bowing.
  • Learn to instantly identify Kamiza (the seat of honor) and Shimoza (the lower seat) in meeting rooms, taxis and elevators to show natural respect to senior leadership.
  • Discover how to gracefully manage after-work drinking culture (nomikai), including polite strategies to decline alcohol while building deep professional bonds with your manager.
  • Put your new cross-cultural communication skills into practice right away during a friendly social hour with global professionals and peers.
Decoding the Japanese Workplace: The Unwritten Rules of Business Culture, led by Hiroko Kamiya
