  The Internal Communication Strategies of Multinational Japanese Companies

  Focus on the Sony Corporation

  
  Beginning with this issue, we will be starting “Conversations with People and Topics of Focus,” a new series consisting of interviews and dialogues hosted by Arc Communications President & CEO Mariko Ohsato. In the first of this series, we asked Mr. Ueda and Ms. Mitoma of the Sony Corporation’s Professional Solutions Group to participate in the dialogue. A wide range of topics were discussed, from the Sony intranet website renewal development that Arc Communications was recently involved in to the current status, future and ideals related to internal communication within global companies. Yoshihiro Sato and Shinichiro Shibata of Arc Communications, who were in charge of the project, also joined this conversation.
