Training

Turning thinking skills into practice

The training business helps organizations build the ability to think and explain structurally. Covering themes such as business models, strategy, and accounting, it goes beyond understanding knowledge—aiming for a state where participants can organize ideas themselves and convey them to others. It is designed with practical application in mind.

Consulting

Organizing complex issues to drive decisions

The consulting business supports companies and organizations facing complex challenges by organizing the situation and key points, and moving decision-making and execution forward. By visualizing differences in assumptions and understanding among stakeholders while facilitating discussion, it reduces confusion and creates a state where people can decide based on shared understanding.

Sharing organized structures

Publishing

Publishing

Understanding complex themes through books

The publishing business organizes complex business and social themes as structures and delivers them as books. By editing with an emphasis on the whole picture and the relationships between elements, it offers perspectives for thinking rather than fragmentary knowledge. Beyond individual learning, the books are meant to serve as a foundation for shared understanding within organizations.

Co-creation

Co-creation

Building structures where diverse actors can move together

The co-creation business designs and drives structures that make collaboration work in projects involving multiple actors such as companies, governments, and residents. By organizing purpose, roles, and progress to build shared understanding, it aims to leave behind a foundation for co-creation that keeps execution going—not just one-time consensus.

Frequently asked questions

Q1. What kind of business does ZUKAI do?
A1. ZUKAI is a company that helps organize structure for complex issues and themes, and move understanding, decision-making, and execution forward. We provide value through multiple businesses suited to the goal and situation—offering products, publishing books, consulting support, training, and driving co-creation projects.
Q2. What is distinctive about ZUKAI's support?
A2. ZUKAI's distinctiveness lies in organizing relationships and premises as a structure, rather than relying on intuition or rules of thumb. We emphasize creating a state where, rather than just one person understanding, stakeholders can think and decide while holding the same map.
Q3. What should I do if I'm not sure which business to use?
A3. Please contact us first through the inquiry form. After hearing about your current situation and concerns, we'll propose the best business and approach. We may combine multiple businesses rather than limiting it to one.
Q4. How much does it cost?
A4. Costs vary depending on the type of business, the content of support, and how we're involved. Because the range is wide—from purchasing products and books to consulting support, training, and co-creation projects—we provide details after a hearing. Please feel free to consult us first.
Q5. When is a good time to consult?
A5. We recommend consulting at a stage where issues aren't fully organized, or when you feel a gap in understanding among stakeholders. When you can't settle on a direction, discussions don't mesh, or you lack confidence in a decision, organizing the structure makes the next move easier to see.
