Imagina Inc. (Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yoshiki Sekino), a frontrunner in brand consulting, will hold a special seminar for business owners and HR managers in Tokyo on Wednesday, April 15, 2026.

In 2026, "The Human Resource Wall" Faced by 90.2% of Japanese Companies According to the latest survey "Questionnaire on Corporate Management Challenges (March 2026)" published by Teikoku Databank, the percentage of companies that cited "human resource strengthening (recruitment, retention, and development)" as their top priority management challenge reached 90.2%. With rising prices and the emergence of AI, traditional "awareness expansion through advertising" has reached its limits, and polishing the "inner quality" of each employee has become the only sustainable investment. ■ "Business EQ": A New Hierarchical Structure to Drive Organizations In this seminar, we will further deepen the concept of "Business EQ," which garnered significant attention previously, and unravel its core. The Business EQ advocated by Imagina is not merely "being personable." ・EQ (Ability to handle emotions): Self-understanding, emotional control, understanding others, and an "attitude of empowering others."

・Public Mind (Social intelligence and morality): ・Media Literacy: The ability to interpret biases in SNS and information, and discern the essence.

・Morals: Having a standard of right and wrong, and the origin of trust-building: "giving first from oneself."

Only when these elements are combined can leadership that bridges organizational "disconnections" be completed. ■ How the World is Cultivating "EQ" and "Public Mind"? Currently, global education and the development of business elites are undergoing dramatic changes. ・Global Standard Education: Medical schools in the UK and Canada have 100% adopted "EQ interviews" for admissions. This is based on data showing that doctors with high intelligence (IQ) but low empathy (EQ) have a higher rate of misdiagnosis.

・Harvard University Insights: Media literacy teaching materials developed by Harvard University are utilized by over 60,000 schools nationwide. The ability to interpret the intent of information is no longer just a "self-defense mechanism" but also a "liberal art" for business professionals.

In this seminar, we will specifically explain how to adapt these world-standard development methods to Japanese corporate culture and connect them to organizational transformation (HCX: Human Capital Transformation). 【Event Overview】 ・Date & Time: Wednesday, April 15, 2026, 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM (Doors open at 9:45 AM)

・Venue: Tokyo Square Garden 5F, Medium Conference Room II-B, 3-1-1 Kyobashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo
