Enterprise Redefinition

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The answer to "What is future value?" has been found. Now comes the harder question: how do you create it? One night, a second blank notebook appears before Sho Kamiya, the CEO who arrived at the theory of Future Value. On its cover, in gold letters: Enterprise Redefinition. Guided by his mentor, Kamiya heads to Tokiwa Manufacturing, a 120-year-old precision manufacturer on the brink of acquisition. The fund's plan is simple: fully automate the factory, dismiss the craftsmen, and return to profit in two years. Efficiency is about to swallow everything. Kamiya chooses an entirely different path. Purpose, Business, Organization, Capital, Leadership: the five dimensions that constitute an enterprise, redefined one by one through the lens of future value. A factory floor where craftsmen's hands and AI work side by side. A bet on creating a market rather than competing in one. A young successor's decision to refuse a fifty-billion-yen offer. And a final showdown at the shareholders' meeting. This is the story of one company's rebirth, and at the same time, the story of a leader maturing from a manager who hands out answers into an executive who hands over questions, entrusting the future to the next generation. The sequel and conclusion to Future Value Theory: A Management Novel. Narrated in English using AI voice technology. Naoki Kadowaki is the founder and CEO of VURA Capital Innovation Holdings, Inc. He teaches AI and management at the Graduate School of Business Administration at Keio University.
