This episode dives into the unspoken dynamics of Japanese workplaces, focusing on two types of influential figures: older male bosses ("Jiji") and senior female staff ("Baba"). It explains why winning over both is rarely possible, and how different strategies are needed for each. With real-life examples and a touch of humor, the episode explores how to navigate power structures without falling into flattery or conflict. It's not about discrimination, but about reading the room, showing respect, and avoiding unnecessary tension. A practical guide for anyone dealing with complex human relationships in traditional office cultures.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------●ビジネス日本語学習者のための無料メルマガ講座⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://my162p.com/p/r/odSmegng⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
