Japan's Top Business Interviews Podcast By Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Previously Alan was Executive Advisor, Nikkei; Chief Commercial Officer at Exceedo; Head of Asia, Pearson, President and Representative Director Pearson Japan; Director of Client Services and Marketing Phoenix Associates; Director Asia, Soshigakuen Group; Director and COO Metropolis Japan. He has a BA in International Relations from Victoria University, Wellington. Summary Alan Malcolm provides key insights into leadership, shaped by his extensive experience in Japan's business environment. Malcolm's leadership philosophy revolves around building trust, understanding individual motivations, and balancing the expectations of both local teams and global headquarters. Malcolm emphasizes the importance of earning trust, both from his team and senior management. He describes leadership as a process of aligning corporate goals with individual motivations, ensuring that employees feel engaged and valued. He highlights that different cultures have distinct drivers: Western employees may be more motivated by financial rewards and career progression, while Japanese employees often prioritize team success, stability, and recognition. Understanding these nuances has helped him bridge cultural gaps and manage teams effectively. A crucial challenge Malcolm faced was transitioning from being a team member to a leader. He admits that early in his career, he tried to be liked by everyone, avoiding difficult conversations. However, he later realized the need to make tough decisions while maintaining relationships. He learned to balance accountability and empathy, ensuring that both corporate expectations and team needs were met. Malcolm also stresses the importance of authenticity and consistency. He believes that leaders should be the same person in all situations, avoiding drastic changes in behavior depending on their audience. This consistency builds credibility and trust within the team. He also practices transparency, openly sharing corporate goals and personal feedback he receives from senior leaders. By doing so, he demonstrates vulnerability, which he believes strengthens, rather than weakens, leadership. One of Malcolm's key strategies is fostering engagement by actively listening to his team. He encourages employees to contribute ideas by providing structured frameworks rather than dictating solutions. He has learned to ask thought-provoking questions that prompt deeper thinking, rather than imposing his own answers. Regarding cultural adaptation, Malcolm advises new leaders in Japan to immerse themselves in the environment rather than relying on outdated business stereotypes. He advocates for learning the language, engaging with local employees, and integrating into the community to build credibility and effectiveness as a leader. Ultimately, Malcolm defines leadership as making decisions and developing people. He believes a successful leader provides the necessary structure, support, and vision while ensuring that the team is motivated to achieve common goals.

Darlene Greene, co-author of the book Echoes of Grace and Strength – Real Life Stories of Women's transformation and Triumph, survived and learned to thrive following the trauma of two narcissistic husbands. Questioning how she could be so duped in love and yet smart and savvy at work, the retired Navy Commander overcame the most significant obstacles in her life, her first two marriages, to thrive in executive leadership and senior management positions across diverse industries, including positions such as: Three Commanding Officer positions in the Navy, Vice President of Strategic Technology Partner at McAfee (Intel), Dean of Culver Girls Academy, Director of Client Services for HyeTech Networks and Security, and Senior Director for a Foundational Cell Activation Technology Company.

Phantom Electric Ghost With Darlene Greene: Cell Activation Technology Consultant Darlene Greene - Cell Activation Technology Consultant, retired US Navy Commander, and Co-Author of the 2024 best selling book, "Become Empowered - Echoes of Grace and Strength." Darlene Greene wants to help you take charge of your own health, get out of pain, improve your energy, increase the quality of your sleep, reduce systemic inflammation, increase mental clarity, improve your nervous system, lower your anxiety, enhance brain functioning, improve cardiovascular functioning, and elevate your GHK-Cu for a host of additional benefits to include increasing your own stem cells, producing growth factors, protect lungs, reset genes to their younger healthier state, repair damaged DNA, inhibit cancer, increase hair growth, improve skin, increase healing, accelerate wound healing, reduce Fibrinogen (top predictor of cardiovascular disease) and more... Having exhausted IV stem cells, hyperbaric chamber, ozone therapies and more to help her husband with his Early Alzheimer's, she FINALLY discovered an affordable technology that dramatically improved his symptoms within the first week, without drugs, without a prescription, and without any contra-indications to other treatments or therapeutic modalities. After experiencing the amazing results for herself, and watching family and friends have their own miracles, Darlene is passionate about sharing this technology with the world. A driving force for her remains, “Why didn't I know about this two years ago… where would my husband be if we had started using this technology two years ago…and who out there needs to know about this right now?” When an anesthesiologist says, “This is the most significant medical breakthrough in my lifetime…” and when over 300 Olympic Athletes use the technology in the 2008 Olympics, aren't you curious as to what it could do for you in addition to making you look and feel younger? Darlene Greene has over 26 years of experience in executive leadership and senior management positions across diverse industries, including positions such as: Vice President of Strategic Technology Partner at McAfee (Intel), Dean of Culver Girls Academy, Director of Client Services for HyeTech Networks and Security, and Senior Director LifeWave Foundational Cell Activation Technology. During her 20 years of military experience, she earned her MBA and held three Commanding Officer positions, including serving as base commander and overseeing over 1200 personnel. Darlene created the Returning Warrior Weekend Workshop in 2006 to help military members and their spouses reintegrate successfully – a program still supporting military across the country today. Darlene's passion today is helping people elevate their GHK-CU peptide to activate their stem cells, repair their DNA, reverse age, and get out of pain through the latest photo biomodulation technology.
