Anfini Inc. Establishes New 'Management Strategy Office'

Anfini Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Jun Hashimoto) has established a new organization called the 'Management Strategy Office' to further promote human capital management.

This unit is positioned to oversee management strategy formulation, talent development, organizational design, and corporate culture development, serving as a hub to support Anfini's medium-to-long-term growth and sustainable corporate value enhancement.

Background of Establishment Since its founding, Anfini has prioritized management that focuses not only on company profits but also on the value, growth, and lives of individual consultants. Rather than pursuing mere rationality or short-term results, the firm respects the challenges and aspirations of its members, making decisions based on the 'happiness' of individuals, including their families, colleagues, and futures. To consistently embody these values and design the company's long-term 'way of being,' the Management Strategy Office was newly established.

Role of the Management Strategy Office The 'Management Strategy Office' is not merely an organization for strategy or management functions. At its core is the philosophy: 'Designing a culture that nurtures the happiness of our colleagues and their loved ones for the next 5 to 10 years.' Companies have a significant impact on people's lives. That is why Anfini believes it is important to stack decisions based on a medium-to-long-term perspective rather than short-term rationality. The Management Strategy Office will lead decision-making processes to shape the 'future form' of Anfini, integrating areas such as strategy, culture, organization, and talent development.

Comment from the Chief of Staff 'The Management Strategy Office goes beyond general corporate planning functions to comprehensively handle talent development and organizational building. This is based on Anfini's philosophy, "Consultants First, Company Second.®" We believe that the essence of corporate management lies not in prioritizing company profits, but in ensuring that each employee can work happily. The role of this office is to create a "place" where employees can continue to challenge themselves with peace of mind, looking 5 to 10 years into the future of Anfini. I am determined to continue nurturing this organization with a sense of responsibility for the futures of our colleagues and their loved ones.'
