About Canning
Canning Professional is a Talent Development organization based in Tokyo. As part of the Canning Group established in the UK in 1965, we have delivered programs to over 120,000 participants from 70 different nationalities, in over 70 different countries worldwide.
The increasing globalization of many industries presents our clients with many different yet specific challenges in terms of developing their talent. For example:
- a division finds itself part of a global team as a result of an organizational change, and team members lack the communication skills to have real influence on the global strategy
- a Japanese manufacturing company is forced to look for growth outside of Japan, and therefore needs to ensure they have a pool of talent ready with the required leadership ability
- a talented manager is to be promoted, but lacks the English skills to really perform in his new role
- a team is deployed overseas for a project, and is unfamiliar with the local culture and its impact on the business environment
These are all recent examples of our clients’ needs and we pride ourselves on our ability to design, develop and deliver highly customized programs that address these specific needs, and more.
We are able to do this by building strong partnerships with our clients, and by drawing on our expertise and experience in four disciplines: Leadership Development, Business Skills Essentials, English for Business Leaders, and Global Mindset & Communication.
