Tokyo 2020 Paralympics—One Day to Go! The Impact of the Tokyo Paralympics in 1964 and 2021
2021-08-23 18:30 - 20:00 (Asia/Tokyo)
The Paralympics are coming to Tokyo! Join us for this special event co-hosted by the Paralliance – a coalition of 20 international chambers of commerce in Japan. The Paralympics often improve accessibility for people with an impairment in the country where the Games are hosted. In fact, the Games are an excellent way to raise awareness about such people, as well as the ways in which they can lead productive and happy lives. This was particularly true in 1964 when problems faced by people with an impairment in Japan often went unseen. Indeed, the 1964 Paralympics, supported very visibly by then-Crown Prince Akihito and Crown Princess Michiko, put a whole new level of capability and way of life on display—not only for the Japanese athletes and their families and friends but for all of Japanese society. In the 21st century, our definition of impairment has significantly broadened as Japan’s rapidly aging society has led to a demographic shift. Leaders and citizens alike have come to realize that the needs and goals of individuals with a physical impairment often align with those of the elderly. Accordingly, they have started to leverage available knowledge, tools, and resources that will enable them to lead full and enjoyable lives. Join Dr. Mark Bookman, a historian of disability in Japanese and global contexts at the University of Tokyo. He will use the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games, which will take place August 24–September 5, and the 1964 Paralympics as case studies to explain how activists and legislation have both failed and succeeded to point a way forward for people with an impairment, who, according to the United Nations, make up 15 percent of the world’s population. And if you believe there is a correlation between aging and impairment, then that number is actually closer to 100 percent of those who make it into their golden years. Indeed, with old age on the horizon, the day may come when you also need improved access. Event Details Date: Monday, 23 August 2021Place: Webex Online Meetings (Instructions for joining the virtual meeting will be sent to registered attendees after the below-stated deadline.)Time: 18:30–19:30; optional networking 19:30–20:00 JSTLanguage: EnglishSpeaker: Dr Mark Bookman, historian of disability in Japanese and global contextsRegistration Deadline: Monday, August 23 2021, 12:00pm Price: Free (SpCCJ Members will be prioritized) Are you not an SpCCJ member yet?

He holds PhD and master of arts degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, and a bachelor of arts from Villanova University. Bookman’s research has been supported by various grants and awards, including a Fulbright U.S. Student Fellowship to Japan and a Japan Foundation Doctoral Fellowship. His scholarship on disability inclusion can be found in Japan Focus: The Asia-Pacific Journal and other peer-reviewed journals, as well as public-facing media outlets such as The Japan Times and Japan Today. Outside of the academy, Bookman also works as an accessibility consultant. He has collaborated with government agencies and corporate entities in Japan, the United States, and Canada—as well as the International Paralympic Committee and the United Nations—on projects related to inclusive education, equitable transportation, and disaster risk management for diverse populations with impairments. For additional information about Mark Bookman, see his website: www.bookmanresearch.com RegistrationThis joint alliance of 20 international chambers of commerce in Japan was created to support the success of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. The Paralympics are a global celebration of diversity and inclusion, sporting achievement, and personal endeavour.

Enhancing Engagement & Performance in a Disruptive Market
2021-08-20 20:00 - 21:00 (Asia/Tokyo) | Japan
Today disruption is the new norm. Business as usual is no longer good enough. This new reality is giving way to the rise of teams. Cross-functional, agile, on-demand and effective teams that can deliver results while adapting to new realities, technologies and evolving business models.This means that team leaders and HR professionals need to find innovative solutions to develop and empower high-performance teams and integrate these solutions across HR functions such as talent acquisition, onboarding, performance management, learning and development and managerial readiness.In this Ie University masterclass, you will learn what the science says about the drivers of employee engagement and high-performance teams, and you will be able to evaluate some of the best psychometric tools available on the market. The discussion will focus on a framework called Emergenetics®, which uncovers thinking preferences and behaviour patterns that all people exhibit all the time. You will garner insight into how this can be leveraged in a virtual post-COVID reality of work-from-anywhere, and how it can develop greater self-awareness, improve interpersonal communication and enhance team harmony, collaboration and results. We look forward to meeting you online soon!

El reto de la gobernanza en la IA: perspectivas de la UE y Japón

* This event will be held only in Spanish / スペイン語で開催のイベントのご案内となります La Inteligencia Artificial abre un mundo de oportunidades, pero también plantea un gran número de preguntas y desafíos. Se trata de un nuevo paradigma tecnológico, con algoritmos capaces de computar un número creciente de datos, que permiten detectar patrones y hacer predicciones con una exactitud que va en aumento. Cada vez es más clara la necesidad de dar una respuesta regulatoria que evite excesos y malos usos en cuestiones como la privacidad, la seguridad, la discriminación mediante sesgos o la transparencia, además de abordar su impacto en el mercado laboral. Se trata de una cuestión directamente relacionada con la Sociedad 5.0, un concepto acuñado por Japón que determina el estado ideal al que debe aspirar el país con objeto de aprovechar las transformaciones tecnológicas para el beneficio de la sociedad. El próximo martes 8 de junio, a las 19:00 JST (12:00 CET), analizaremos dos enfoques diferentes hacia este tema. Lo haremos en el encuentro digital “El reto de la gobernanza en la IA: perspectivas de la UE y Japón“. ¿En qué puntos convergen? ¿En cuáles difieren? ¿Cómo conjuga cada parte el equilibrio entre privacidad, seguridad y transparencia con la necesidad de crear un ecosistema que fomente la innovación? Intentaremos responder a estas y otras preguntas en un webinar abierto al público y que tendrá unos 45 minutos de duración.

IE University Masterclass: Megatrends in 2030 and how to Lead companies there
2021-02-24 17:00 (Asia/Shanghai) | Japan
On February 24 our Corporate member IE University organizes in collaboration with the Spanish Chambers of Commerce network in Asia, the Online Masterclass ‘Megatrends in 2030 and how to Lead companies there‘ by IE Professor Carmen Morales. In today’s competitive, complex, fast-paced global economy, uncertainty and change are relentless challenges for today’s leaders. Massive global forces will reshape your business for the year 2030: formidable competition, environmental pressures, talent wars, threat of lasting pandemics, AI and technological leaps will divide the short-term thinkers from the prudent few looking for long-range opportunities. How can leaders make the right strategic decisions and leadership choices? The directions we go and choices we make will have enormous impacts on our lives, careers, businesses, and the world. To lead in a VUCA world, leaders need to hone their contextual intelligence and understand the megatrends, and macro and micro level forces influencing their organization’s success. Organizations ranging from Fortune 500 firms to small entrepreneurial start-ups find that they need to change in order to succeed and survive. Change processes are a natural part of evolution. However, the changes organizations face today and expect in the future, present significant challenges. Companies are composed of people working together to reach goals they couldn’t reach alone. The purpose of this masterclass is to enable participants to improve their awareness and knowledge of issues that will impact their leadership and businesses looking ahead to 2030, to be able to embark on paths of personal leadership development.

Sustainability Lab
2021-01-27 17:00 - 18:00 (Asia/Shanghai) | Japan
Sustainability is no longer an ethereal concept. Companies of all sizes, across all sectors and countries, are realizing that embedded sustainability clearly result in a positive impact on business performance: efficiency improvements, brand loyalty, high satisfaction for shareholders and employees, substantial public relations gain… It is necessary for companies to consider sustainability not as programs separated from their real business but incorporating it as a core business strategy.In order to create an in-depth discussion to widen views and exchange ideas, the SpCCJ is launching “Sustainability Lab”, where we will be holding a series of round tables and panel discussions. For each session, a guest speaker will bring to the table their experience in the field of sustainability before moving on to an open discussion among companies from various industries. The first session will be held on 27 January at 17:00. And for this first session, we are inviting Ms. Juliane Trummer, VP of Strategy and Design at Mormedi for the guest speaker to discuss about how companies can adopt sustainability into their business model and what are the current trends. After hearing from Juliane, we will move on to a open discussion among the SpCCJ Members to talk about experiences and exchange ideas.

Politics In The Digital Age: A Change Of The Political Paradigm?
2020-12-08 17:00 - 18:00 (Asia/Shanghai) | Japan
The various scandals engulfing social media companies like Facebook and Twitter are only the tip of the digital iceberg towards which governments, societies and geopolitics generally are headed. Digital technology is permeating every part of how we are governed – and affecting whom we choose to do the governing. At the same time, perhaps less visibly, it is affecting authoritarian societies. On December 8 our Corporate member IE University organizes in collaboration with the Spanish Chambers of Commerce network in Asia, the online Master Class ‘Politics in the Digital Age: A Change of the Political Paradigm?‘ by IE Professor Milo Jones.In this session, we’ll explore how digital technology has become what philosophers call a “formal cause”, i.e. something that does not merely have effects, but that is actually structuring and shaping political and social choices. In so doing, we will spot clues of how we can expect the future of digital societies to evolve. We look forward to meeting you on-line soon! Event DetailsDate: Tuesday, 8 December 2020Place: Zoom Online WebinarTime: 17:00 – 18:00 JSTLanguage: EnglishRegistration: EVENT REGISTRATIONRegistration Deadline: Tuesday, 8 December 2020, 12:00pmOnly for SpCCJ MembersThis is a SpCCJ Members Only Event.Are you not a Member yet? Find out more about the membership category and benefits on our website and contact us at info@spanishchamber.or.jp. Membership available from JPY10,000/year.Dr. Jones’s knowledge of cultural transformation started with his own transformation during training as an officer in the US Marine Corps. He then refined that knowledge working on Wall Street and in Change Management for Accenture in London. But the roots of what is uniquely valuable about Milo’s approach to social change has two other sources.

The first distinctive element flows from his research as a Fellow at the Center for the Study of Digital Life. Digital technologies are treated as social and psychological phenomena, not merely as technical changes.

The second special component in Milo’s approach draws on his PhD research on the internal analytic culture of the CIA (that was subsequently published by Stanford University Press as Constructing Cassandra: Reframing Intelligence Failure at the CIA, 1947-2001).

This unique combination of factors and experiences allows Milo to introduce frameworks, anecdotes, and insights into his sessions that are truly practical, fresh, and memorable.

Balancing what is technically possible with what is practical for companies and governments today, he pays special attention to the implications of digital technologies for the skill sets of individual leaders and for the capabilities that organizations need now and in the future.
