[Webinar] Solving 'I entrusted but it didn't go as expected': 3 points to rethink mid-level leader development in childcare facilities from a structural perspective

Kataguruma Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and CEO: Hironobu Otake) will hold a free webinar titled "Why don't mid-level leaders function? Three development points according to structural challenges" on June 17 (Wednesday) and 23 (Tuesday), 2026, targeting management and administrators of childcare and early childhood education facilities.

Background: The real nature of the 'mid-level leader problem' where they are nurtured but do not grow

In the field of childcare and early childhood education, due to revisions in placement standards and diversification of work, it has become difficult for principals, vice principals, and head teachers alone to handle management duties. Therefore, the existence of "mid-level leaders" such as head teachers, deputy head teachers, and class leaders is expected.

However, in reality, voices such as "I don't know which tasks to entrust," "I entrusted but they didn't act as expected," and "The person themselves is not motivated toward management tasks" are incessant. This is not a matter of individual aptitude but stems from the fact that roles and development processes for each job level are not designed as a "structure."

In this webinar, Megumi Kondo, Customer Success Department Manager at Kataguruma, who has supported many facilities through the organizational and human resource development cloud "KatagrMa," will explain three specific steps to make mid-level leaders function, while considering real conflicts at each job level.

Main contents of this seminar

- Background to the current demand for mid-level leader development - Conflicts regarding management tasks that differ by job level (head teacher, deputy head teacher, class leader, etc.) (actual voices from the field) - Three steps necessary for mid-level leader development (development plan according to level × task design × visualization and feedback of practice)

*Contents are subject to change without notice. Please understand in advance.
