Establishment of the "Engagement Solution Department" Specializing in the Engagement Domain

Advantage Risk Management Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Meguro-ku, Tokyo; President and Representative Director: Shinji Torigoe; hereinafter "the Company") announces the establishment of a new specialized organization, the "Engagement Solution Department," to address employee engagement, an increasingly critical theme in human capital management.

1. Background of Establishment

Driven by the advancement of human capital management and information disclosure, an increasing number of companies are introducing engagement surveys and pulse surveys. However, in our dialogues with corporate HR personnel and management executives, we frequently hear concerns such as, "We are investing heavily in surveys but seeing no changes," "We are measuring but cannot determine the next actions," "Implementation is left entirely to managers and the field, making measures a mere formality," and "We feel a gap between the survey results and the actual state of the organization."

The Company believes that surveys are unlikely to yield results unless conducted in tandem with "post-measurement actions." The Engagement Solution Department will integrate the survey design and analysis know-how accumulated over 20 years with expertise cultivated in areas such as mental health, behavioral change, and management support. This aims to promote engagement support that does not stop at mere measurement. Specifically, through "specialized analysis of survey results and structuring of issues," "designing measures that lead to actions by managers and the field," and "hands-on support to run a continuous improvement cycle," we aim to realize engagement measures that transform the actual state of the organization and its people.

2. Message from Yasushi Fujiwara, General Manager, Engagement Solution Department

I strongly feel that engagement is a theme that must not end with "just measuring." Having supported many corporate clients, I have often heard that despite having survey results, "we don't know what actions to take on the front lines," "it's left entirely up to managers," or "in the end, nothing changed." Originally, engagement is not about improving numbers, but building a foundation where each individual can perform at their best with peace of mind, allowing the organization to continuously deliver results. Our Company has accumulated extensive knowledge over many years in mental health, behavioral change, and management support. In the Engagement Solution Department, we will multiply these strengths to realize support that runs alongside companies—not just "interpreting results" but ensuring "actions change on the front lines."

We are resolved to work as a specialized organization to ensure that improving engagement does not end as a "passing initiative."
