Management Coaching Service "Mento" Launches "Managers Can Change. Endorsed by 10,000 People." First-Time Coaching Campaign on July 1, 2026

mento Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Norihito Kimura; hereinafter referred to as "mento"), which provides the management coaching service "Mento," is pleased to announce that the cumulative number of coaching participants has surpassed 10,000.

To commemorate this milestone, we will launch the "Managers Can Change. Endorsed by 10,000 People." First-Time Coaching Campaign starting on Wednesday, July 1, 2026. Based on data showing that 95% of participants experience behavioral changes and 92% feel performance improvements, we will deliver the endorsement of 10,000 people to companies that have not yet experienced mento's coaching.

◾️ Background of the Project

An era where it is commonplace to hear that "managers are isolated" and "management has become a 'punishment game.'"

However, mento has always felt a sense of dissonance with these statements.

"Managers can change."

With this conviction, we have continued to move forward, and our cumulative number of participants has now exceeded 10,000. Furthermore, it has been confirmed that 95% of participants experience behavioral changes and 92% feel performance improvements. The fact that managers can change is no longer a "hope" but a "reality."

On this milestone occasion, we extend this to companies that have not yet experienced mento's coaching. We want you to deliver the endorsement of 10,000 people to the managers in your company. With this sentiment, we are launching this campaign.
