Pallet Inc. (Headquarters: Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, Representative Director: Akiko Hayama) will launch the practical program 'Human Resource Retention and Organizational Development Program in Sendai City' for SME managers and leaders starting in July 2026, in collaboration with the Sendai City Industrial Promotion Organization (SEN+, Location: Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, Chairman: Kaoru Murakami).
This program is a 7-month accompanying program that nurtures human resources capable of promoting organizational development from within the company.
Through learning, dialogue, and practice, it aims to transform participants into 'stakeholders who move the organization themselves.'
In last year's implementation, it received high evaluations with 91% meaningfulness from participants and 93% satisfaction from superiors, creating specific changes in the field.
Now in its third year, it continues to evolve further.
■ Last Year's Results (Actual figures)
Overwhelming evaluation by superiors: 93.3% of superiors and managers who sent participants answered 'Very good/Good'.
Improvement of psychological safety in the organization: As a result of surveys, the 'sense of security' and 'self-acceptance' of workplace members significantly increased.
Specific behavioral changes and effects: 'Built relationships where it's easy to consult by introducing a nickname system,' 'Deepened understanding through repeated dialogue with members, enabling me to trust and delegate work to them.'
Organizational changes: 'The front lines began to function even in the absence of a leader,' 'A common understanding was born regarding the necessity of human resource development.'
■ FY2026: Characteristics of the Evolved Program
Based on the solid response obtained over the past two years that 'organizational development is not something you strive for alone, but advance with colleagues,' we have further strengthened the following three points this year.
1. Expansion of the Alumni Mentor System (Deepening of vertical mutual learning)
Further strengthening the mentor system by alumni, which was well-received last year. Through the accompaniment of graduates with practical experience, we will accelerate the succession of 'living wisdom' to overcome the walls that current students face in the field.
2. Thoroughness in creating a 'Common Language' with superiors and HR
Continuing and developing the system where one can observe the training. By having superiors and HR experience the content learned by leaders together, we will increase 'common dialogue' within the company and build a strong backup system so that the learning in the training does not become a lonely challenge.
3. Strengthening opportunities for 'Cross-boundary Learning' among participating companies
Going beyond the framework of one's own company, we have added opportunities for companies in different industries to converse and share knowledge. We will further enhance the value as a community to 'create good organizations throughout the region.'

■ Comment from Akiko Hayama, Representative Director of Pallet Inc.
Thanks to your support, this program is entering its third year this fiscal year.
Over the past two years, we have faced 'organizational development' with many companies. What initially tended to be a lonely challenge of 'one leader trying hard to change the organization' has certainly begun to connect to the self-driving and transformation of the entire organization by expanding from 'points to surfaces' through the mentor system by graduates and the observational participation of superiors.
'Organizational development is something where everyone is a main actor.'
In our third year, we will deepen this philosophy and, together with regional peers, fully support 'creating an organization that is truly chosen,' where business strategy and organizational alignment are achieved.
