Anfini Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Jun Hashimoto) is pleased to announce the publication of a new book by its Chief Growth Officer and leading career researcher, Professor Kenzosuke Tanaka, titled 'Career Antourage: How to Cultivate Athletes Who Contribute to Society'. The book will be published by Senkobo Publishing Co., Ltd. on June 15, 2026.

This book focuses on career development for athletes, exploring from both theoretical and empirical perspectives how competitive experience can be connected to life after sports and future societal contributions. Starting with the question, 'Why do athletes' careers become unstable after retirement?', it re-examines the previously underexplored process of career formation through theory and evidence.

Anfini has long promoted the concept of human capital management, aiming to maximize the potential of individuals and organizations. Professor Tanaka's expertise in career theory and organizational studies is deeply aligned with Anfini's support services. Through this book release, Anfini will further strengthen its dissemination of practical and socially significant insights.
