Thank you for your continued support and trust in the Funai Soken Group.
Looking toward 2030, our goal is to accelerate group-wide management, sustain robust
growth, and establish ourselves as one of Japan’s leading publicly listed management
consulting groups
Our Group Purpose
In January 2023, we established our new Group Purpose: “Sustainable Growth for More Companies.” This purpose draws inspiration from our long-standing Group Philosophy, “Creating the Future for People, Companies, and Society,” as well as the mission of our core operating company, Funai Consulting Inc., “Creating the Great Companies of Tomorrow.”
Looking ahead to the next decade, we reflected on several fundamental questions:
● What aspirations can inspire every employee across the group and unlock their full potential?
● What unique contribution to society can our group provide?
● As a model for client companies, what defines a “great company” in the 21st century?
● What qualities should a company listed on the Prime Market possess to compete on the global stage?
● In an era of constant uncertainty, what kind of organization can remain resilient and continue to grow?
Guided by these questions, we engaged in nearly two years of thoughtful, group-wide discussions to develop this purpose.
The Story Behind Our Group Purpose
Funai Soken Group began as a consulting firm specializing in marketing. Since our founding, we have focused on helping our clients—primarily small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)—achieve tangible results, from customer acquisition to revenue growth. Supporting this type of growth has long been both our focus and our strength.
At the same time, sustainability is playing an increasingly critical role globally. Companies are expected to operate responsibly and create lasting value for a broad range of stakeholders. We define a “Sustainable Growth Company” as one that combines two essential qualities: the resilience to drive consistent business growth in any environment, and the responsibility to act with long-term sustainability and care for society and its stakeholders.
In recent years, the world has faced unprecedented challenges, including pandemics, climate change, energy crises, inflation, and market volatility. Even during such periods, our group remains committed to sustainable growth while serving as a practical and accessible model for the SMEs we support.
Our aim is not only to support these companies but also to foster a broader ecosystem of Sustainable Growth. Starting in our home country, Japan, we believe that increasing the number of Sustainable Growth Companies can create a ripple effect, transforming individual businesses, strengthening regional economies and industries, and ultimately benefiting society as a whole.
Visualizing Our Purpose
In our philosophy illustration, the Group Purpose is depicted as the sun, with the Group Vision forming the sky above. Beneath them, each of our companies is represented as a tree, growing together like a forest, united and reaching toward the sun. Each company also has its own vision and mission, reflecting its unique role within the group. The Group Core Values (Funai Way) serve as the soil, supporting the shared roots of the trees, while the Founder’s Spirit represents the water source, nourishing the roots and fueling growth. This imagery illustrates how purpose, vision, values, and spirit all work together to drive our collective growth.
Building a Sustainable Growth Mindset Through Dialogue
To ensure our Group Purpose is more than just a slogan, we hold regular town hall meetings with employees across the group. Inspired by visits to innovative tech companies abroad, these meetings provide a platform for employees to engage directly with executives, ask questions, and share ideas. We believe that nurturing an understanding of long-term goals requires continuous dialogue and hands-on experience. By connecting the Founder’s Spirit, core values, vision, and Group Purpose, we aim to cultivate a Sustainable Growth Mindset in every employee—one that drives collaboration across the group and supports sustainable growth over the long term.
To our stakeholders, we deeply appreciate your continued support and encouragement as we pursue this vision together.
