Show notes

This episode explains why the Japanese phrase *“ikaga na mono ka”* (“I’m not sure about that”) is one of the most important expressions to understand when working in large Japanese corporations. It sounds calm and rational, but often hides dissatisfaction without responsibility, explanation, or solutions. Drawing on real workplace experience in Southeast Asia, the talk shows how this phrase functions as a tool of indirect pressure and emotional control rather than management or advice. For foreign professionals, recognizing this pattern can prevent unnecessary self-blame and mental exhaustion. Understanding this single phrase reveals the deeper structure of authority inside Japanese corporate culture.
