Every day, 700,000 Americans working in Japanese companies confront the rice-paper ceiling. International business consultant Rochelle Kopp exposes this invisible obstacle to advancement at Japanese corporations, how it operates, and what you can do to break through it to improve your workplace relationships and career prospects. Along the way she details case studies that reveal the profound differences between Japanese and American work styles and cultures. If you work for a Japanese company, or plan to, you need this book. A revealing, readable account of American-Japanese interactions in the workplace.-Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business School Rochelle Kopp is a Yale graduate with an M.B.A. from the University of Chicago. She is Managing Principal of Japan Intercultural Consulting in Chicago.
