In this episode I chat with Sanae Endo - who, based in Japan is a Human Resources Senior Executive who has worked for some of the worlds largest organisations managing global change and transformational programs across cultural and geographical boundaries. Sanae-san is an innovator, educator, diversity advocate and Otaku and Lean practitioner. Sanae gives a fascinating insight into how some of the Japanese techniques and customs can actually help support you on your innovation journey and become Fit for Disruption.

We also learn about Sanae-san and her journey growing up in San Fransisco region, and what it was like growing up as a Japanese child in a Western environment. We learn how this helped shape the incredible person she is - one of resilience, adaptability and empathy
