 With a belief in team work, our structure of management relies heavily on cooperation and coordination just like a race car driver would leave technical issues to the pit crew. We are proud to say that we have overcome the obstacles of being a traditional Japanese company by exercising rapid growth in size. It took us just about six years to gain recognition which lead us to become a public company.
In Planex, the leadership came from expertise of knowledge rather than seniority. We recruited numbers of elite from large companies such as Intel and Symantec to share their experience with the group. Our expectation is to create a pattern in which the group operates under its unique system not exploiting the common practice of ordinary operation. In addition to contribute transparency of operation, Planex has a close up to 50% of directors that are non-executive board members during the year of 2002. |
