"Come as you are works in Japan when leaders are also willing to read the air and meet people where they are". "Japan isn't as risk-averse as people think; it is uncertainty avoidance and consensus norms like nemawashi and ringi-sho that slow decisions". "In Japan, numbers are universal, but how people feel about those numbers is where real leadership begins". "For foreign leaders, kindness, patience, and genuine curiosity are far more powerful than charisma or title". "Women leaders who embrace their own style, instead of copying male role models, can quietly transform Japanese workplaces".   Joanne Lin is Senior Director, APAC, for Deckers Brands, the American company behind UGG, HOKA, and Teva. Born in Taiwan and raised in Canada, she later completed her MBA at Boston University and began her career in Boston, working in a trading company and then at Merrill Lynch Investment Company. In 2000, she moved to Japan for family reasons and has since built a 25-year leadership career in this complex market. In Japan, Joanne first held senior finance roles, including Head of Finance for Reebok Japan and CFO for Aegis Media, where she worked on mergers and acquisitions. She joined Deckers over thirteen years ago as CFO for Japan and was later asked to step in as interim Country Manager for Deckers Japan. Today she is back in an APAC-wide role, responsible for finance and strategy across 15 markets, including Japan, China, South Korea, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand. Her remit covers subsidiaries and distributor markets alike, requiring constant adaptation across cultures. Throughout her journey, Joanne has learned to reconcile a direct, North American style with Japan's more implicit, consensus-driven culture. Often mistaken for Japanese because of her appearance, she calls herself the "invisible gaijin", using that ambiguity to observe carefully, read body language, and bridge cultural expectations. Her leadership story is one of resilience, curiosity, and the quiet confidence to lead as herself in a country that often expects conformity. Joanne Lin's leadership journey began far from Japan. Born in Taiwan and raised in Toronto, she grew up immersed in North American directness, meritocracy, and straight-talking feedback. After completing an MBA at Boston University, she started her career in Boston, first at a trading company and then at Merrill Lynch Investment Company, building a strong foundation in finance. Numbers, ratios, and cash flows were her native business language long before she ever heard the phrase kūki o yomu — "reading the air" — in Japan. In 2000, she moved to Japan for family reasons, expecting to build a career but not realising how deeply the culture would challenge her assumptions about leadership. She entered the corporate world here without Japanese language skills and without local experience. Physically, many colleagues assumed she was Japanese, or at least of Japanese descent, and treated her accordingly. She jokes that she became an "invisible gaijin": expected to understand unspoken rules despite never having grown up with them. Early on, she discovered that in Japan, silence often speaks louder than words. Concepts akin to nemawashi — the quiet groundwork of building consensus before meetings — and the unspoken pressure to align with the group meant that decisions rarely came from a single, charismatic leader. Instead, she had to watch faces, posture and micro-reactions around the table. While she came from an environment where people said "yes" or "no" clearly, in Japan phrases like "I'll think about it" could mean "no" 80% of the time. Learning to interpret these signals became as important as reading the P&L. Her career advanced steadily through senior finance roles: Head of Finance for Reebok Japan, CFO for Aegis Media leading M&A, and later CFO for Deckers Japan. Over thirteen years at Deckers, she helped steer the growth of brands such as UGG and the fast-rising performance brand HOKA in one of the world's most competitive footwear markets. Eventually, she was asked to serve as interim Country Manager for Deckers Japan, an opportunity that tested her ability to go beyond numbers and lead entire functions including sales, marketing, HR and retail. Joanne's leadership philosophy is grounded in being genuine and transparent. She believes in explaining the "why" behind decisions, giving context, and aligning people rather than simply seeking agreement. She spends time helping non-finance colleagues understand what gross margin, discounts and operating income mean in practical terms, translating finance into everyday language rather than using it as a gatekeeping tool. Engagement surveys, where Japan often scores modestly compared with global benchmarks, have been a recurring theme in her work. Rather than blaming culture, she looks at how questions are worded, how norms shape responses, and then uses those insights to design practical remedies — from "lunch and learn" sessions to cross-functional gatherings and new-joiner lunches with senior leaders. As a woman leader, Joanne has wrestled with impostor syndrome yet chosen to step forward anyway. She sees many high-potential women in Japan holding back, waiting to be "perfect" before raising their hand. Her message to them is clear: trust yourself, recognise your natural strengths in communication and empathy, and accept that no leader — male or female — is ever fully ready. In the end, her story is about blending global experience with local nuance, leading with kindness and clarity, and proving that one can honour Japanese culture while still bringing a distinct, authentic leadership style to the table. Q&A Summary What makes leadership in Japan unique? For Joanne, leadership in Japan is defined by what is not said. The real meeting often happens before and after the official meeting, through nemawashi, where stakeholders quietly shape outcomes. In the room, kūki o yomu — reading the air — is critical: leaders must observe body language, side glances and subtle hesitations to interpret what people truly think. Formal tools like ringi-sho workflows, built on stamped approvals and consensus, reinforce a collective approach to decision-making. Japanese employees often assume the leader should already know their needs without them having to say it. That expectation of intuitive understanding, combined with a strong norm of harmony, makes empathetic listening and patience indispensable leadership skills. Why do global executives struggle? Global executives often arrive with a Western template: clear targets, rapid decisions, direct feedback. In Japan, that can clash with a culture that prizes stability, seniority and group consensus. Leaders may misinterpret indirect communication as indecisiveness or lack of ambition, when in fact people are carefully weighing the impact on the group. Engagement surveys then show Japan at the bottom of global rankings, and headquarters misreads this as disengagement, rather than a reflection of conservative scoring norms. Many foreign leaders also underestimate how much time must be invested in trust-building, one-on-one conversations, and slow-burn relationship work before people feel safe to share ideas or challenge the status quo. Is Japan truly risk-averse? Joanne sees Japan as more uncertainty-avoidant than risk-averse in the pure financial sense. As a finance professional, she knows that commercial risk can be quantified — through scenarios, ratios and forecasts. But in Japan, the social and reputational risks loom equally large: who will be blamed if this fails, what will it do to group harmony, how will customers react? These uncertainty factors slow decisions more than the numbers themselves. Leaders who introduce tools like decision intelligence platforms, scenario simulation or even digital twins of supply chains can help Japanese teams see risk in a structured way, reducing the emotional fear around uncertainty and making experimentation feel safer. What leadership style actually works? The style that works for Joanne is grounded in transparency, modesty and consistency. She leads by example, explaining not only what must be done, but why, and what it means for individuals and teams. She tries to give her people "airtime", resisting the urge — common to many finance leaders — to jump straight to the solution. In practice, that means listening to ideas without immediate judgement, thanking people publicly for their input, and celebrating small wins as much as big milestones. She maintains high standards but increasingly recognises that not everyone should be held to the same work rhythm she sets for herself. Alignment, not forced agreement, is the goal: people may disagree but still commit to the path once they feel heard. How can technology help? Technology, in Joanne's world, is not just about efficiency; it is a bridge between data and human behaviour. Advanced analytics, dashboards and decision-support tools can make trade-offs between margin, volume and investment more tangible for non-finance teams. AI-driven text analysis of engagement comments can surface themes that traditional surveys miss, helping leaders understand sentiment behind Japan's modest scoring patterns. Scenario modelling and digital twins of operations can turn abstract risks into concrete options, making it easier for consensus-driven teams to move forward. At its best, technology supports nemawashi by giving everyone a shared, data-informed picture, rather than replacing dialogue. Does language proficiency matter? Joanne arrived in Japan with no Japanese language ability and was forced to become an intense observer of body language and context. That experience convinced her that leadership is possible without fluency — but far more sustainable with it. Learning Japanese shows respect, reduces distance, and makes informal conversations and humour possible. Even basic proficiency helps leaders understand nuance in ringi documents, hallway chats, and customer feedback. She encourages foreign leaders to invest in language learning not as a checkbox, but as a signal of commitment to the market and to their teams. What's the ultimate leadership lesson? Her core lesson is simple yet demanding: be kind, be open, and be yourself. Leaders should stop expecting perfection from themselves and from others, especially in a country where external shocks like currency swings, tariffs and pandemics can derail even the best-laid plans. Instead, they should focus on doing their best, communicating clearly, and treating people with respect. For women leaders especially, Joanne's message is to step forward even when self-doubt whispers otherwise — to recognise that their strengths in empathy, communication and cultural sensitivity are not "soft" add-ons but central to effective leadership in Japan. In the long run, success here is less about heroics and more about steady, human-centred leadership that people genuinely want to follow. Timecoded Summary [00:00] The conversation opens with an introduction to Deckers Brands, the American company headquartered in Santa Barbara and best known in Japan for UGG, HOKA and Teva. Joanne explains that Deckers historically functions as a holding-style company, acquiring and growing footwear brands, and that Japan is a key market where three major brands are active. She outlines her current role as Senior Director, APAC, overseeing finance and strategy across 15 countries, including both subsidiaries and distributor markets. [05:20] Joanne traces her career arc: Taiwanese by birth, raised in Canada, MBA from Boston University, then finance roles in Boston with a trading company and Merrill Lynch Investment Company. In 2000 she relocates to Japan for family reasons, later becoming Head of Finance for Reebok Japan and CFO for Aegis Media, working on M&A. She joins Deckers over thirteen years ago as CFO for Japan and eventually steps into an interim Country Manager role, before returning to a wider APAC mandate based in Japan. [12:45] The discussion shifts to cultural adjustment. Because she "looks Japanese", colleagues initially assume she understands Japanese norms. She describes becoming an "invisible gaijin", held to local expectations without having grown up here. She learns to read the air, focusing on facial expressions, body language and context. Phrases like "I'll consider it" often conceal a "no", and she gradually becomes adept at interpreting such indirect communication. Her direct North American instincts must be tempered by Japanese expectations for restraint and harmony. [19:30] Finance and human reactions to numbers come into focus. Joanne notes that while sales, gross margin and SG&A appear objective, different functions interpret them in varied ways: finance may celebrate high margins while sales may worry they are under-investing. She stresses the importance of explaining financial concepts in simple terms, almost as if speaking to a 10-year-old, so that everyone can understand consequences. Her temporary shift from CFO to GM broadens her empathy for non-finance views and deepens her appreciation for cross-functional tension. [26:10] Attention turns to team engagement and communication. Japan's engagement survey scores routinely trail global averages, a pattern she attributes partly to cultural modesty and translation issues. Instead of accepting low scores as fate, she focuses on post-survey action: leaders are asked to talk openly with teams, understand expectations, and co-create remedies. Concrete initiatives such as "lunch and learn" sessions and new-joiner lunches with directors help break silos, humanise leadership and create informal nemawashi-like spaces where people can ask questions and share concerns. [33:40] Joanne discusses culture-building under the umbrella of Deckers' "Come as you are" value. She supports self-expression — even store staff in gender-fluid fashion — as long as it's tasteful and customer-appropriate. Her own leadership style is to be genuine, transparent and open about vulnerabilities. She balances the efficiency of top-down directives with the long-term benefits of participation: while consensus-building and alignment take time, they reduce turnover, re-training costs and disengagement. [40:15] Gender and leadership come into sharper focus. Joanne recounts her own bouts of impostor syndrome and the temptation, earlier in her career, to doubt her readiness for bigger roles. She notes that many women hesitate to raise their hands until they feel almost 100% qualified, while men may step up with far less. She encourages aspiring women leaders to recognise their strengths in empathy and nuanced communication, to "give it a try" even when not fully confident, and to view setbacks as learning rather than final verdicts. [47:30] The interview closes with advice for foreign leaders coming to Japan. Joanne emphasises being open, respectful and kind — to oneself and to others. She urges leaders to accept that Japan's deep-rooted culture will not change in a short posting, and that success depends on adapting rather than trying to remodel the country. Learning Japanese, even imperfectly, is both a sign of respect and a practical tool for building trust. Ultimately, she argues, effective leadership in Japan is about balancing data and humanity, global standards and local nuance, ambition and empathy.

En Capital Intereconomía, los Desayunos Capital han estado protagonizados por Inma Cima, Country Manager de Fastned España, compañía europea líder en recarga ultrarrápida de vehículos eléctricos, que acaba de inaugurar sus dos primeras estaciones en el país, ubicadas en Garraf Norte y Garraf Sur (Barcelona), con un total de 16 puntos de carga de hasta 400 kW, capaces de ofrecer 300 kilómetros de autonomía en tan solo 15 minutos. Cima ha subrayado que este lanzamiento marca el inicio de un ambicioso plan de expansión, con el objetivo de alcanzar una docena de estaciones a corto plazo y hasta 80 infraestructuras en 2030. Para Fastned, España “juega un papel clave en la transición hacia una movilidad eléctrica más avanzada” gracias a su posición estratégica y al creciente compromiso con la descarbonización. La directiva ha destacado también los principales retos del sector, entre ellos la burocracia y la falta de un marco regulatorio homogéneo, que siguen ralentizando el despliegue de la red de recarga. “Tenemos la tecnología y la inversión, pero necesitamos agilidad administrativa”, señaló. Además, defendió la importancia de la colaboración público-privada como motor del cambio hacia una movilidad más sostenible. Fastned se diferencia por su modelo de recarga ultrarrápida abierta y universal, disponible para todos los vehículos eléctricos, y por el diseño de sus estaciones —amplias, cubiertas y con energía 100% renovable— que busca mejorar la experiencia del usuario. Cima apuntó que España tiene “una gran oportunidad para liderar la movilidad eléctrica en Europa”, si logra acelerar la implantación de infraestructura de alta calidad. En la segunda parte del programa, Carlos Cruzado, portavoz de GESTHA, explicó los motivos detrás de la huelga convocada por los Técnicos de Hacienda para el 26 de noviembre, que incluirá una manifestación en Madrid con profesionales llegados de toda España. Cruzado denunció la falta de reconocimiento profesional y retributivo del colectivo, reclamando una reestructuración interna y mejoras en las condiciones laborales. Finalmente, Ángel Barajas, presidente de la Sociedad Española de Economía del Deporte, analizó “El poder del dinero en el deporte”, reflexionando sobre el creciente peso de fondos de inversión y magnates internacionales en la propiedad de clubes y competiciones. Barajas advirtió que, aunque estos capitales aportan liquidez y profesionalización, también plantean riesgos de pérdida de identidad y sostenibilidad a largo plazo, señalando la necesidad de una regulación más equilibrada en el sector.

"A volte qualcuno nella tua vita ti fa sentire sbagliato."Inizia così il racconto incredibile di Andrea Colombi, partito da una sensazione di "irritazione" e una "fame" incredibile, e arrivato oggi a definire il suo ruolo di Country Manager in Yamaha come "il lavoro più bello del mondo".In questo episodio dell'1% Podcast, Andrea ci porta dentro il suo viaggio ventennale: da analista assunto nel 2006, con il solo bisogno "che qualcuno credesse in lui", a leader di una filiale da cui dipendono 2.000 famiglie. È una masterclass sulla leadership umana, dove i KPI e i fatturati "non sono l'obiettivo, ma la conseguenza" di quello che fai.Il suo percorso di consapevolezza inizia con un viaggio a Barcellona, il momento esatto in cui ha capito di "andare bene così" e ha smesso di sentirsi "sbagliato". Questa consapevolezza lo ha portato a capire che per guidare servono più soft skill che hard skill: saper leggere un bilancio è la base, ma non serve a nulla se non è "connesso" dall'empatia.Andrea ci offre una visione unica sul mercato, sfatando il mito della "crisi": ci svela, infatti, che il mercato delle moto è al suo picco massimo da 15 anni. Parliamo anche dell'impatto di icone come Valentino Rossi e di come abbia trasformato la MotoGP in un fenomeno mainstream, e di come il DNA racing di Yamaha sia nato vincendo la prima gara solo 10 giorni dopo la fondazione nel 1955.Questa è una storia che parla di innovazione, di coraggio (che non sempre coincide con l'opportunità) e di come connettere i numeri ai valori.Guarda l'episodio completo per scoprire la storia di Andrea Colombi!

En este episodio, desglosamos "El Futuro del Commerce Conversacional: Lecciones desde Brasil" junto a Thiago Goncalves, Country Manager México de Blip. Thiago, quien ha liderado expansiones tecnológicas en LatAm por más de veinte años, está construyendo la operación mexicana desde cero para Blip, la plataforma de IA Conversacional más grande de Brasil.La conversación explora la perspectiva única de Thiago: cómo aplicar las lecciones de la transformación brasileña en el mercado mexicano. Analizamos la decisión crítica de adaptar la estrategia brasileña para México y por qué funcionalidades exitosas en un país deben rediseñarse completamente para otro.Discutimos el reto de las conversaciones de chatbot que fallan por falta de contexto cultural. Abordamos el gran debate del ecosistema: si el comercio conversacional es un sustituto que hará obsoletas a las plataformas web o si es un complemento que requiere orquestación inteligente de canales.Thiago revela el KPI que más le obsesiona como Country Manager y comparte una predicción controversial sobre el futuro del commerce conversacional en México.El takeaway estratégico principal es que el comercio conversacional es más que tecnología: se trata de rediseñar por completo la relación marca-consumidor. Las empresas exitosas serán aquellas que entiendan que el futuro del retail es conversacional, personalizado y culturalmente inteligente.

En Capital Intereconomía, la tertulia de mercados ha reunido a cuatro referentes del sector financiero: Lorenzo Coletti, director para Iberia en Pictet AM; Patricia López Molina, responsable de Distribución de Iberia en GAM; Ralph Elder, Managing Director Iberia/Latam en BNY Investments; y Ramón-Borja Álvarez de Toledo, Country Manager de Swisscanto International Asset Management. Los expertos han coincidido en que los resultados empresariales del tercer trimestre pueden convertirse en un nuevo catalizador para las bolsas, especialmente en Estados Unidos, donde las grandes tecnológicas siguen marcando el ritmo del mercado. Se ha hablado del FOMO (miedo a quedarse fuera de las subidas), que sigue empujando a muchos inversores a mantener posiciones en renta variable y, sobre todo, en el sector tecnológico, pese a las valoraciones exigentes. En renta fija, la atención se centra en el impacto de la crisis política francesa sobre la deuda del país —con el bono a diez años en el 3,48%— y en el efecto del cierre federal de EE.UU., que ha provocado movimientos hacia los bonos soberanos como activos refugio. En este contexto, el Treasury estadounidense ha caído por debajo del 4,1%, lo que algunos interpretan como una señal de que el mercado empieza a descontar recortes de tipos. Los analistas han coincidido en que, pese a la incertidumbre, las bolsas aún tienen margen para subir en la recta final del año, apoyadas en los resultados empresariales, las expectativas de relajación monetaria y el efecto estacional del rally de Navidad. La jornada se ha completado con el análisis de preapertura de los mercados de la mano de Alexis Ortega, profesor de Finanzas en la EAE Business School, quien ha apuntado que el tono de los mercados europeos sigue siendo positivo, aunque “la complacencia podría poner a prueba la solidez del rally si los datos macro no acompañan”.

Con el cierre del año acercándose, los mercados financieros se encuentran en un momento clave. ¿Podrán las bolsas continuar su ascenso y protagonizar un esperado rally de Navidad? Los resultados empresariales recientes podrían actuar como catalizador de nuevas subidas, mientras algunos inversores experimentan FOMO ante el temor de perderse más oportunidades, especialmente en el sector tecnológico. Al mismo tiempo, la renta fija se convierte en refugio ante la incertidumbre: el bono de Estados Unidos se sitúa por debajo del 4,1%, mientras que la crisis política en Francia ha llevado a la deuda gala hasta el 3,48%, generando inquietud entre los inversores. En este análisis han participado expertos de reconocido prestigio: Lorenzo Coletti, director para Iberia en Pictet AM; Patricia López Molina, responsable de Distribución de Iberia de GAM; Ralph Elder, Managing Director – Iberia/Latam en BNY Investments; y Ramón-Borja Álvarez de Toledo, Country Manager y managing director en España de Swisscanto International Asset Management. Juntos han abordado las claves de la actualidad financiera: resultados empresariales, posibles nuevas ganancias en bolsa, tendencias en renta fija y cómo los factores políticos y fiscales afectan a los mercados globales.

En Capital Intereconomía, la sección Empresas con Identidad ha tenido como protagonista a Xavier Barriga, fundador de Turris, la reconocida cadena de panaderías artesanas que ha sabido conjugar tradición y modernidad en un sector en plena transformación. Barriga ha compartido su visión sobre el valor del producto hecho a mano, la importancia de la sostenibilidad en la producción y cómo mantener la esencia artesanal en un modelo de negocio en expansión. En Digital Business, la conversación ha girado hacia el mundo del talento y la digitalización con Ángel Sáenz de Cenzano, Country Manager de LinkedIn en España y Portugal. Sáenz de Cenzano ha abordado la evolución de LinkedIn como red profesional y plataforma social, destacando que “si no estás en LinkedIn, eres un profesional sin techo”. Con más de 20 millones de miembros en España, la red se ha consolidado como un espacio no solo para buscar empleo, sino también para informarse, generar marca personal y compartir conocimiento. El directivo ha explicado cómo el algoritmo de LinkedIn premia la autenticidad, la interacción y la constancia en las publicaciones, y ha ofrecido claves para construir un perfil profesional atractivo, cada vez más alejado del formato tradicional de currículum. También ha detallado las nuevas herramientas de la plataforma, como LinkedIn Learning, que fomenta la formación continua en un entorno laboral cada vez más dinámico. La entrevista también ha abordado la realidad del mercado laboral actual: los perfiles más demandados, la importancia de la flexibilidad y el propósito para atraer y retener talento, la convivencia entre senior y junior, y el papel que jugará la inteligencia artificial en los empleos del futuro. Sáenz de Cenzano ha subrayado que las empresas que apuesten por la formación, la empatía y la adaptabilidad serán las que lideren el cambio.

In this Product Spotlight, Tracy is joined by Matt Gosling, owner of Premium Ag, an agriculture consulting company based in Strathmore, Alberta. Matt shares why he calls KWS Hybrid Fall Rye his “favourite crop” and even the “best herbicide on the market.” From weed suppression to early harvest and agronomic consistency, Matt explains why hybrid rye stands out compared to other spring cereals.
