"Japaniese Leadership" for Revival of Company

Case of President Tai who revived Sharp participating from Hon Hai

Abstract

Sharp was strong in LCD but was in debt excess and asked for investment by Hon Hai. Mr. J.W. Tai, Deputy Governor of Hon Hai, assumed Sharp President in August 2016. The fiscal year 2017 settlement accounts became surplus. What was the required factors for Sharp`s survival? One is the leadership of president J.W. Tai. I interviewed him at the request from him. I also got a "president's message". Analyzing these primary information, the source of his leadership is to respect the founder Tokuji Hayakawa and establish “Shared Values" such as "Sincerity and Creativity" with employees by fostering "Credibility". I found that the required key factor is Mr. Tai`s Hon Hai-style “Japanese Leadership."
