The JHRS-IWNC Employee Engagement Survey 2012 (09 Apr 2012)

The JHRS-IWNC Employee Engagement Survey 2012

[Japanese text follows below]

In many organizations, employee engagement surveys are conducted on a regular basis which are then followed by action planning and implementation of agreed solutions and recommendations. However, organizations often find it difficult to validate actual "impact and change" resulting from these employee engagement surveys.

In this regard, The Japan HR Society (JHRS) together with IWNC are conducting this survey amongst HR professionals at global organizations in Japan.

The purpose of this survey is to measure the employee engagement levels for the participating respondent companies. The survey will then further explore correlation between employee engagement enhancement and their organization's performance (financial, operational, etc.) in order to measure the possible "impact and change" of employee engagement initiatives to the bottom line.

Please consider helping us assess the current status of employee engagement in Japan and its effectiveness to the organizational performance by participating in this survey. The survey takes 15 minutes or less to complete, and your answers will be treated confidential.

皆様へ

従業員エンゲージメントと企業業績の関連性に関するアンケート調査ご協力のお願い。

各企業では定期的なエンゲージメント調査が行われ、奨励されるソリューションに従って、スコアを上げるためのアクションが実行されています。その一方で、実行に移したアクションの結果が実際に及ぼした「影響と変化」を検証することは、企業担当者にとって思いのほか手間のかかるケースが少なくありません。

このたびJHRSでは（株）IWNCの協賛により、日本およびアジアで事業を展開するグローバル企業の人事プロフェッショナルを対象に、日本拠点における「従業員エンゲージメント調査」を実施する運びとなりました。

本サーベイでは、調査に参加していただく各企業における「従業員エンゲージメント度合い」の現状を把握し、エンゲージメント向上のための取り組みと企業の業績（財務、オペレーション等）との関連性を探ることによって、エンゲージメント向上の取り組みが数字（利益）に及ぼす「影響と変化」を測ります。

御社日本拠点における社員エンゲージメントの状況と、企業業績への効果を検証する本調査へのご協力をお願い申し上げます。

サーベイは30問の設問から構成されており、約15分程度でお答えいただける内容となっています。（回答内容はコンフィデンシャルです。）

2nd Offshoring, Outsourcing & Shared Services Summit Japan (19 Jul 2012)

Thu, 19 Jul 2012 12:30:00 GMT

ATTN: JHRS Members - See Special Offer below.

Is the Shared Services model driving transformation in the Japanese economy?

Today, the changing business landscape is propelling the need for outsourcing in Japan. With ever-increasing globalization, the ability for Japanese businesses to be flexible and agile in their approach to business has become imperative. Japanese companies are increasingly making the same strategic decisions as the U.S. and Europe - they are using outsourcing/shared services for their business solutions and to meet their business needs faster, cheaper and smarter.

An increasing number of companies in Japan are evaluating the Shared Services & Outsourcing Model

In 2003, approximately 15% of the companies listed on the Tokyo stock exchange were considering the implementation of shared services. Today, that number has increased to over 71%.

Due to the challenges the Japan economy has faced in the last 36 months, the outsourcing market in Japan is expanding and now is experiencing the revolution that was seen 10 years ago in Europe and the US.
