Knowledge@ASB - Disaster Management: Who's Calling the Shots in Japan?
Many outstanding questions concern the accidents at the Fukishima
nuclear power plant in the wake of the March earthquake, tsunami and
ongoing aftershocks in Japan. Japanese prime minister Naoto Kan has
criticised the plant's operator Tokyo Electric Power Company and its
executives for their handling of the situation and in recent days the
company has apologized for the nuclear crisis. But it's not surprising
that top-level executive decision-making has come under scrutiny in
Japan, says Hodaka Morita, a professor at the Australian School of
Business and an Australian research fellow. Recent economic history has
made many Japanese workers better at calling the shots than their
bosses, he claims.
