日系大企業の幹部サラリーマンは、なぜ語らないのか｜Why Do Senior Executives in Japanese Corporations Stay Silent?

In many Japanese corporations, senior executives clearly understand organizational dysfunction, structural contradictions, and employee exhaustion. Yet they rarely speak openly—inside or outside the company. This episode explores why silence is not ignorance or weakness, but a rational survival strategy. It explains how openly supporting younger employees can actually harm them, turning honest voices into political liabilities. Rather than words, executives act through silence, observation, and personnel decisions. This talk examines power, loyalty, and distance inside Japanese organizations, and offers insight into how young employees can speak without becoming someone else’s proxy.
