2  GLOBIS MBA 

When I began my own journey a s an MBA

student a little over 20 years ago, I never

dreamed I would be president of my own school,

let alone the largest business management school

in Japan.

 

Back in those days, “entrepreneur” was not a

recognized career path in Japan, where the best

and the brightest were expected to follow, rather

than lead, and work their way up wi thin well-

established companies. This percep tion, however,

is beginning to fade, and with thousands of

students enrolled every year, GLOBIS is putting

people in the driver’s seat of their career and

helping them achieve their personal mission in life.

 

Finding your life’s goal – kokorozashi in Japanese

– is a requirement for all GLOBIS students, and

something that sets us apart from other business

schools. We believe an MBA is more than a

degree, and a career is more than a job. Whether

you want to start your own company like me, or

bring renewed innovation to the biggest names in

business, GLOBIS will help you find your personal

mission and give you the skills and n etwork you

need to make it a realit y.

 

Realize your dreams at GLOBIS and become one

of tomorrow’s visionary leaders, who create and

innovate societies.

The Birth of a Business School

In 1992, at the age of 30, entrepreneur Yoshito Hori

created ‘GLOBIS’ from scratch (combining the words

‘global’ and ‘business’), largely inspired by Harvard

Business School’s MBA program – from which he

had graduated a year earlier. The school found life

in President Hori’s central Tokyo apartment, with

President Hori as the sole employee. After sending

letters to HBS alumni in Japan inviting them to teach

at the newly formed GLOBIS School of Management,

President Hori managed to assemble a team fromhis personal network and began to instruct the

pioneering class of 20 students, using the famous

'case method.' Today, GLOBIS is an expanding

educational institution and has instructed thousands

of international business professionals.

The Highest Standards of Management Education

The first GLOBIS students were knowledge-hungry

individuals who funded their studies with their

own money and therefore demanded the best: top-

quality education from world-class instructors.

GLOBIS demands the highest standards from all

faculty members, requiring instructors to have MBAs

or other master’s degrees, real-world business

experience and the ability to teach using the case

method – rather than the traditional lecture style. This

unique approach to business education created a

surge in applications, prompting GLOBIS to build two

more campuses in the cities of Osaka and Nagoya.

The Largest Business School in Japan

GLOBIS’ success and rapid growth was driven by

President Hori’s intense energy and by word of mouth

following his revolutionary approach to education.The exponential growth GLOBIS experienced secured

its place as the largest management school in Japan,

bringing it one step closer to its ultimate goal of

becoming Asia’s top business school.

After reaching its 20th anniversary in 2012, GLOBIS

has continued to expand and seek further challenges,

launching new campuses in Sendai and Fukuoka, and

subsidiaries in Shanghai and Singapore.

 

With five campuses nationwide and two offices

abroad, GLOBIS is fast becoming recognized as one of

Asia’s fastest-growing business schools.

Kokorozashi –discover your personal mission

We believe that the personal mission you willdevelop at GLOBIS will be your compass throughoutyour MBA journey and your life after that.

GLOBIS exists to educate people who are ambitious—

not for self-aggrandizing purposes, but for creating

positive changes in society. This is why GLOBIS

puts particular emphasis on the development of its

students’ “personal mission” or Kokorozashi .

During your studies at GLOBIS, you will be given

ample opportunities to think deeply about your own

personal mission and discover what you are truly

passionate about.

The Japanese term ‘ Kokorozashi’ is

interpreted by GLOBIS as having a p ersonal

mission, the very core of a leader’s strength.

What You will Gain from Studyingat GLOBISGLOBIS is more than a business school. The network of peopleyou will meet here, the invaluable skills you will obtain and thepersonal mission you will be encouraged to shape will help you

become a ‘visionary leader who creates and innovates societies.’

Personal Mission

During your studies at GLOBIS, you will be given

ample opportunities to think deeply about your ownpersonal mission and discover what you are truly

passionate about. By developing this inner drive, you

will be able to forge a personal network and utilize

the many skills you will gain during your studies.

Personal Network

The contacts and friendships you make at GLOBIS

may change your life. A diverse mix of students,

a truly global faculty and associations with top

business leaders will help start you on your path to

success. GLOBIS peers, alumni and lecturers may

become your future business partners, investors

or mentors—it all comes down to how much effort

you put into expanding your per sonal network. Try

meeting as many people as possible during your

studies at GLOBIS, as your network of contacts will

be an essential tool in supporting your mission and

success in life.

Business & Conceptual Skills

GLOBIS students do not just learn hard business

skills such as accounting, finance and marketing—

they also study the soft skills needed to innovate and

create value in a globalized world. Communication,

negotiation, critical thinking and management

philosophy are just a few of the many topics you will

cover during your studies at GLOBIS, all of which will

help contribute to your personal growth.

The GLOBIS Challenge‘Developing Your Personal Mission’At GLOBIS, students are challenged to think deeply about theirown personal mission in life and to apply their passion to createand innovate.

Leadership Development, Ethics

and Values

GLOBIS students use the results of a 360-degree evalua-

tion, the GLOBIS Leadership Skill Survey, filled in by ten

evaluators from their own workplaces (including supe-

riors, peers and subordinates), to diagnose their currentstrengths and weaknesses. Students are then given rec-

ommendations for their daily skill development by defin-

ing how their ideal leaders perform and considering how

they can gain the skills to become such leaders.

Keiei Dojo

Unlike any course taught at conventional business

schools, Keiei Dojo  is a course where students are

asked to study books and discuss their findings with

classmates. The books that students are asked to read

in Keiei Dojo  are on topics that have had an impact on

President Hori. Through lively discussion, students find

out what the implications are for becoming leaders,

what they may be missing, and where they may need

to challenge themselves.

President’s Session

The President’s Session gives students the opportunity

to reflect upon their personal mission and on how

to contribute as ‘visionary leaders who create and

innovate societies’ by having a direct Q&A session with

President Hori. President Hori will discuss in detail thechallenges he encountered as an entrepreneur, leader

and venture capitalist, and how he was able to overcome

them. Students are also able to ask questions about

President Hori’s own vision and future plans for business

development, and the GLOBIS organization.

Reflection Session

The purpose of the reflection session is to help

students objectively look at their current strengths and

weaknesses, their personal mission, and to construct a

plan for their remaining studies at GLOBIS. This session

is unique to GLOBIS and is regarded as an essential tool

to enhance the growth of our students and help them

monitor and develop their ultimate goal in life.

Aya MurotaJapan, MBA of 2013

“GLOBIS is a place where you can expand your horizons and gain

inspiration. Meeting so many amazing people from different backgroundshas really helped put my own goals into perspective and reflect on my

personal mission in life. My time here has helped me discover my goal of

creating links between Japan and other Asian economies, and this goal

will guide me in my career after graduation.“

The GLOBIS Difference‘Entrepreneurial Spirit’As GLOBIS was founded as a start-up venture, an entrepreneurialspirit is in our DNA. This spirit is shared by our faculty and staff,and is present throughout our curriculum.

Entrepreneurial Courses

n the Entrepreneurial Leadership  course, students

have the opportunity to think and feel what leaders

would actually do when they are in an entrepreneurial

setting or in a corporate reorganization setting.

By looking at case studies, written reports andnterviews with representative Japanese and global

entrepreneurs, students are able to grasp the

essentials of what it takes to become entrepreneurial

eaders.

n the Venture Strategy  course, students learn how

to formulate strategies specific to the establishment

of start-up businesses, as well as how to discover

entrepreneurial opportunities and plot a growth

strategy. Students will hear lectures from succe ssful

entrepreneurs and experienced venture capitalists

who share methods of establishing business models

based on their own experiences.

Established using the accumulated knowledge

of GLOBIS Capital Partners, the Venture Capital

and Finance  course is designed for current and

future entrepreneurs, those currently involved in

an entrepreneurial venture and those interested

in extending their knowledge of finance to the

entrepreneurial area. The course will also be of

benefit to many others, including those hoping to

manage entrepreneurial ventures and those with an

interest in the financial issues peculiar to start-ups.

Faculty with Venture Experience

Many of our lecturers are seasoned entrepreneurs

or have actual experiences as venture capitalists,

having established promising businesses in Japan

and around the world. The unique mix of venture

courses, start-up experts and a venture spirit within

the school makes GLOBIS the ideal environment to

plan your future entrepreneurial endeavours.

10  GLOBIS MBA

“In the Entrepreneurial Leadership  course, students learn in depth

about the leaders and change

agents of today and yesterday.

Besides this course, students will

have many more opportunities to

grow as leaders at GLOBIS.”President Hori

GLOBIS MBA  11

Chantaporn TubtimdeeThailand, MBA of 2014

“GLOBIS was built on entrepreneurship, so that energy makes it a

really exciting place to learn about business. Many of my classmates

and lecturers have experience building their own company, so you can

gain a lot of ideas and insights that you just couldn’t get anywhere

else. The venture courses also give us the necessary skills to bring

these ideas to life. Whether you want to start your own business or

innovate an existing company, GLOBIS will inspire you and give you

the tools to achieve your goals.”

The GLOBIS Advantage‘Practical Application’Our courses cut to the heart of business issues, allowing you toimmediately apply what you learn in real life. Our curriculum ishighly practical and is taught by seasoned business professionals.

Business Professionals Sharing

Industry Experiences

GLOBIS lecturers are chosen for their professional

backgrounds and excellent facilitation skills. Our

nstructors share the challenges and issues they have

overcome in their professional lives, ensuring the

GLOBIS curriculum is firmly grounded in the reality

of contemporary business.

Training Blue-chip Companies

and Incorporating the Latest

Industry Insights

GLOBIS uses the curriculum to educate hundreds

of Japan’s largest companies. These blue-chip

firms truly appreciate the practicality of the GLOBIS

curriculum and in turn provide us with the latest

market information regarding their respective

ndustries and current business challenges.

Creating Knowledge by Developing

the Companies of Tomorrow

GLOBIS helps venture companies grow into

the market leaders of tomorrow. As we actively

participate in the management of these companies,

we gain practical knowledge about start-up situations

and utilize that newly gained knowledge in our

curriculum.

Experience Real Business Situations

with the Case Method

Case studies allow students to experience business

situations by putting themselves in the shoes of

management, facing business challenges that

occurred in real life. GLOBIS uses case studies from

the world’s most prominent business schools and

produces case studies focusing on Japanese and

Asian companies.

12  GLOBIS MBA

Rick ColbyUnited States, MBA of 2014

“GLOBIS classes allow you to actively participate, so you gain a much

deeper understanding of the concepts from the teacher and fellowstudents. Taking classes at night after work, I appreciate the fast-paced,

high energy classes and prefer them to passively listening to long

lectures. The curriculum focus is very practical and applicable to my

work, and because the lecturers are all practicing business professionals,

the case studies are an entry point to a wealth of current, real world

experience and insights. Listening to how these concepts are utilized in

contemporary business gives me an unparalleled edge.”

VENTURE CAPITAL

CORPORATE TRAINING

PUBLICATIONS

Beyond a Business SchoolGLOBIS is more than a Business School. GLOBIS supports

the development of human, capital and knowledge resourcesthrough its venture capital arm, corporate training programs,and publications.

Venture CapitalGLOBIS Capital Partners is a Japanese venture

capital firm actively developing companies that

reside in the technology, retail and healthcare

sectors. Since the launch of its first fund in 1996,

GLOBIS Capital Partners has grown to become one

of Japan’s leading venture capital firms, investing

in over 100 companies and overseeing several IPOs.

Many of GLOBIS’ faculty actively par ticipate in the

management of the venture companies we have

invested in and add their experiences and findings to

our curriculum. Being at the forefront of these start-

up companies gives us unique know-how that we

share with students eager to learn about the exciting

world of ventures.

Corporate TrainingWe entered the corporate training sector after some

of our students who were highly impressed by

our courses recommended GLOBIS to the human

resources departments of their companies. GLOBIS

Corporate Education aims to deliver customized

programs to each client with tailor-made curricula

and case studies that we closely relate to the clients’

interests and needs. This approach was radically

different from programs offered by conventional

training companies, most of which sold standard

off-the-shelf training packages. Such innovative

methods helped attract a stream of clients, allowing

GLOBIS’ corporate training to become a new stand-

alone business unit.

As of 2011, GLOBIS provided training programs

to more than 320 companies, with about 33,000

corporate managers and employees attending our

sessions. Through customized corporate programs,

we learn about the actual challenges companies

are dealing with and we actively participate in

formulating viable solutions to their problems.

The knowledge acquired through this process is

then converted back into teaching materials—thus

creating a virtuous circle between corporate training

and our school.

PublicationsTo disseminate our management wisdom, GLOBIS

decided to publish a 17-volume “GLOBIS MBA”

series, drawing upon our accumulated business

expertise. The books gained enormous popularity

due to their practicality and unique MBA insights,

with over 1.4 million copies sold in Japan. The

GLOBIS brand is now recognized by millions of

business people, and has been a synonym for

practicality and quality for the last two decades.

3Key Facts

Top Business Professionals

with real management experience in a wide array of industries. As

between “knowing” and “doing.”

Excellent Facilitation Skills

Excellent facilitation skills are a key requirement for all GLOBIS

faculty, and one that is constantly assessed. As most of our

classes are discussion-based, it is extremely important for

lecturers to guide the discussions and make sure everyone has

challenging students to come up with their own solutions, thus

deepening their understanding.

Passion for Students’ Growth

Lecturers at GLOBIS are dedicated to students’ personal growth and

future success, and continue to support them even after graduation.

“Job-hunting in Japan can be really tough without

the right connections. As part of my MBA studies at

GLOBIS, I was able to gain an interns hip at a major

manufacturing company. This gave me a chance

to apply the skills I had been learning in class, and

after graduation the company offered me a job, so I

returned as an employee!”

Welcome to Japan, Welcome to GLOBISJapan is a stimulating country that blends ancient cultureand awe-inspiring world heritage sites with leading-edge

architecture and technology.

As Asia’s most advanced country, Japan offers

ncredible opportunities for international business

professionals, from bringing the world ground-

breaking engineering projects like the Shinkansen

bullet train, to industry re-defining electronics

and eco-vehicle technology. Japan is home to

nnovative companies like Nintendo, Sony and

Honda, making it the perfect place to study for an

MBA. An incredible, exciting country, Japan offers

unsurpassed opportunities for budding leaders. It

is truly a fertile ground for studying, investing and

living. If you want to become a world-class business

leader, Japan is the ideal country for you.

Japan, a fascinating country combining

spectacular historical beauty and

leading-edge innovation.

GLOBIS is located in the center of Japan’s capital, making it

the perfect choice for internationally minded business leaders.

Tokyo is a buzzing, first-class metropolis, home

to dozens of blue-chip companies and the world’s

largest metropolitan economy, with a GDP of

US$1.412 trillion.* It is a leading city in design,

fashion, architecture, engineering, technology

and finance.

Tokyo has a very highly developed infrastructure,

financial and political stability, a large number of

global financial institutions and the second-largest

stock market in the world (by market capitalization).

Tokyo is a ‘command center’ of the global economy

and yet a highly efficient, extremely safe, very

liveable city. From fashionable Shibuya, Ginza and

Harajuku, to bustling Shinjuku and Marunouchi,

Tokyo is truly a world-class metropolis.

*Source Pricewaterhouse Coopers 2008

Tokyo, a vibrant metropolis. Asia’s leading

business and cultural capital. A city of

constant innovation and regeneration.

Melissa MarquezThe Philippines, MBA of 2013

“Life in Tokyo is never, ever boring. Whether you want

to go shopping, sightseeing, or just chill out in a park

with friends, this city will offer you choices that no

other city can. It is also a great place to learn about

business – there are more Fortune 500 companies here

than anywhere else, and I think we can learn a lot from

the Japanese management style.”
