Born in 1972. Specializes in strategic management theory; entrepreneurship theory; and business administration and management organization theory.

My main research purpose is to elucidate the question of “How can the firm remain highly competitive in rapidly changing markets?” through a theoretical approach. In particular, I am currently studying the theory of Dynamic Capability (DC), namely, the ability to find new business opportunities in changing markets and reallocate available resources, both internal and external, to take advantage of such opportunities. Specifically, this is the ability to build strength that cannot be copied by competitors, using an entrepreneurial approach. Principally, I am tackling the theoretical aspect of DC studies based on the entrepreneurship and knowledge theories developed by the Austrian school of economics.

In this connection, I have recently become interested in the necessity of entrepreneurship for local and national governments, because, as is widely acknowledged, the ability to unleash entrepreneurial ingenuity through a trial-and-error approach is increasingly important as a means to make better use of limited resources and funds. I will further study this issue too.

The Graduate School of Policy Science focuses on interdisciplinary studies and thus welcomes graduate students with diverse backgrounds. I also value how motivated students are to study at our graduate school, rather than their past academic performance. If you are so motivated, you are most welcome.
