This paper describes that improving individual productivity eventually contributes to individual wellbeing. To date, there have been several studies that have shown that 1) companies need to focus on employees’ willingness to learn for their personal development, 2) employees are eager to make valuable contribution in their workplace being driven by sense of accomplishment, 3) corporate transformation requires to buy in employees with demonstrating successive tangible results. The purpose of this paper is to verify these studies as valid throughout BASF Japan “WIN project” (Work style INnovation project), which drives flexible workstyle as well as improving productivity. This paper reports the results and insights that can be gleaned from its quantitative and qualitative findings throughout employees’ survey. “WIN project” has demonstrated that the company could improve its productivity by fostering diversity of its employees’ value, making it a corporate objective for employees to continue learning. It was also confirmed that a key success factor for corporate transformation is to focus on eliminating impediment factors for leaning. Consequently, both individual productivity and individual wellbeing could be achieved, which should be an enabler for corporate sustainable growth.
