2 GLOBIS MBA
When I began my own journey a s an MBA
student a little over 20 years ago, I never
dreamed I would be president of my own school,
let alone the largest business management school
in Japan.
Back in those days, “entrepreneur” was not a
recognized career path in Japan, where the best
and the brightest were expected to follow, rather
than lead, and work their way up wi thin well-
established companies. This percep tion, however,
is beginning to fade, and with thousands of
students enrolled every year, GLOBIS is putting
people in the driver’s seat of their career and
helping them achieve their personal mission in life.
Finding your life’s goal – kokorozashi in Japanese
– is a requirement for all GLOBIS students, and
something that sets us apart from other business
schools. We believe an MBA is more than a
degree, and a career is more than a job. Whether
you want to start your own company like me, or
bring renewed innovation to the biggest names in
business, GLOBIS will help you find your personal
mission and give you the skills and n etwork you
need to make it a realit y.
Realize your dreams at GLOBIS and become one
of tomorrow’s visionary leaders, who create and
innovate societies.

The Birth of a Business School
In 1992, at the age of 30, entrepreneur Yoshito Hori
created ‘GLOBIS’ from scratch (combining the words
‘global’ and ‘business’), largely inspired by Harvard
Business School’s MBA program – from which he
had graduated a year earlier. The school found life
in President Hori’s central Tokyo apartment, with
President Hori as the sole employee. After sending
letters to HBS alumni in Japan inviting them to teach
at the newly formed GLOBIS School of Management,
President Hori managed to assemble a team fromhis personal network and began to instruct the
pioneering class of 20 students, using the famous
'case method.' Today, GLOBIS is an expanding
educational institution and has instructed thousands
of international business professionals.
The Highest Standards of Management Education
The first GLOBIS students were knowledge-hungry
individuals who funded their studies with their
own money and therefore demanded the best: top-
quality education from world-class instructors.
GLOBIS demands the highest standards from all
faculty members, requiring instructors to have MBAs
or other master’s degrees, real-world business
experience and the ability to teach using the case
method – rather than the traditional lecture style. This
unique approach to business education created a
surge in applications, prompting GLOBIS to build two
more campuses in the cities of Osaka and Nagoya.
The Largest Business School in Japan
GLOBIS’ success and rapid growth was driven by
President Hori’s intense energy and by word of mouth
following his revolutionary approach to education.The exponential growth GLOBIS experienced secured
its place as the largest management school in Japan,
bringing it one step closer to its ultimate goal of
becoming Asia’s top business school.
After reaching its 20th anniversary in 2012, GLOBIS
has continued to expand and seek further challenges,
launching new campuses in Sendai and Fukuoka, and
subsidiaries in Shanghai and Singapore.
With five campuses nationwide and two offices
abroad, GLOBIS is fast becoming recognized as one of
Asia’s fastest-growing business schools.

Kokorozashi –discover your personal mission
We believe that the personal mission you willdevelop at GLOBIS will be your compass throughoutyour MBA journey and your life after that.
GLOBIS exists to educate people who are ambitious—
not for self-aggrandizing purposes, but for creating
positive changes in society. This is why GLOBIS
puts particular emphasis on the development of its
students’ “personal mission” or Kokorozashi .
During your studies at GLOBIS, you will be given
ample opportunities to think deeply about your own
personal mission and discover what you are truly
passionate about.
The Japanese term ‘ Kokorozashi’ is
interpreted by GLOBIS as having a p ersonal
mission, the very core of a leader’s strength.
What You will Gain from Studyingat GLOBISGLOBIS is more than a business school. The network of peopleyou will meet here, the invaluable skills you will obtain and thepersonal mission you will be encouraged to shape will help you
become a ‘visionary leader who creates and innovates societies.’
Personal Mission
During your studies at GLOBIS, you will be given
ample opportunities to think deeply about your ownpersonal mission and discover what you are truly
passionate about. By developing this inner drive, you
will be able to forge a personal network and utilize
the many skills you will gain during your studies.
Personal Network
The contacts and friendships you make at GLOBIS
may change your life. A diverse mix of students,
a truly global faculty and associations with top
business leaders will help start you on your path to
success. GLOBIS peers, alumni and lecturers may
become your future business partners, investors
or mentors—it all comes down to how much effort
you put into expanding your per sonal network. Try
meeting as many people as possible during your
studies at GLOBIS, as your network of contacts will
be an essential tool in supporting your mission and
success in life.
Business & Conceptual Skills
GLOBIS students do not just learn hard business
skills such as accounting, finance and marketing—
they also study the soft skills needed to innovate and
create value in a globalized world. Communication,
negotiation, critical thinking and management
philosophy are just a few of the many topics you will

The GLOBIS Challenge‘Developing Your Personal Mission’At GLOBIS, students are challenged to think deeply about theirown personal mission in life and to apply their passion to createand innovate.
Leadership Development, Ethics
and Values
GLOBIS students use the results of a 360-degree evalua-
tion, the GLOBIS Leadership Skill Survey, filled in by ten
evaluators from their own workplaces (including supe-
riors, peers and subordinates), to diagnose their currentstrengths and weaknesses. Students are then given rec-
ommendations for their daily skill development by defin-
ing how their ideal leaders perform and considering how
they can gain the skills to become such leaders.
Keiei Dojo
Unlike any course taught at conventional business
schools, Keiei Dojo is a course where students are
asked to study books and discuss their findings with
classmates. The books that students are asked to read
in Keiei Dojo are on topics that have had an impact on
President Hori. Through lively discussion, students find
out what the implications are for becoming leaders,
what they may be missing, and where they may need
to challenge themselves.
President’s Session
The President’s Session gives students the opportunity
to reflect upon their personal mission and on how
to contribute as ‘visionary leaders who create and
innovate societies’ by having a direct Q&A session with
President Hori. President Hori will discuss in detail thechallenges he encountered as an entrepreneur, leader
and venture capitalist, and how he was able to overcome
them. Students are also able to ask questions about
President Hori’s own vision and future plans for business
development, and the GLOBIS organization.
Reflection Session
The purpose of the reflection session is to help
students objectively look at their current strengths and
weaknesses, their personal mission, and to construct a
plan for their remaining studies at GLOBIS. This session
is unique to GLOBIS and is regarded as an essential tool
to enhance the growth of our students and help them
monitor and develop their ultimate goal in life.

Aya MurotaJapan, MBA of 2013
“GLOBIS is a place where you can expand your horizons and gain
inspiration. Meeting so many amazing people from different backgroundshas really helped put my own goals into perspective and reflect on my
personal mission in life. My time here has helped me discover my goal of
creating links between Japan and other Asian economies, and this goal
will guide me in my career after graduation.“

The GLOBIS Difference‘Entrepreneurial Spirit’As GLOBIS was founded as a start-up venture, an entrepreneurialspirit is in our DNA. This spirit is shared by our faculty and staff,and is present throughout our curriculum.
Entrepreneurial Courses
n the Entrepreneurial Leadership course, students
have the opportunity to think and feel what leaders
would actually do when they are in an entrepreneurial
setting or in a corporate reorganization setting.
By looking at case studies, written reports andnterviews with representative Japanese and global
entrepreneurs, students are able to grasp the
essentials of what it takes to become entrepreneurial
eaders.
n the Venture Strategy course, students learn how
to formulate strategies specific to the establishment
of start-up businesses, as well as how to discover
entrepreneurial opportunities and plot a growth
strategy. Students will hear lectures from succe ssful
entrepreneurs and experienced venture capitalists
who share methods of establishing business models
based on their own experiences.
Established using the accumulated knowledge
of GLOBIS Capital Partners, the Venture Capital
and Finance course is designed for current and
future entrepreneurs, those currently involved in
an entrepreneurial venture and those interested
in extending their knowledge of finance to the
entrepreneurial area. The course will also be of
benefit to many others, including those hoping to
manage entrepreneurial ventures and those with an
interest in the financial issues peculiar to start-ups.
Faculty with Venture Experience
Many of our lecturers are seasoned entrepreneurs
or have actual experiences as venture capitalists,
having established promising businesses in Japan
and around the world. The unique mix of venture
courses, start-up experts and a venture spirit within
the school makes GLOBIS the ideal environment to
plan your future entrepreneurial endeavours.

“In the Entrepreneurial Leadership course, students learn in depth
about the leaders and change
agents of today and yesterday.
Besides this course, students will
have many more opportunities to
grow as leaders at GLOBIS.”President Hori
GLOBIS MBA 11
Chantaporn TubtimdeeThailand, MBA of 2014
“GLOBIS was built on entrepreneurship, so that energy makes it a
really exciting place to learn about business. Many of my classmates
and lecturers have experience building their own company, so you can
gain a lot of ideas and insights that you just couldn’t get anywhere
else. The venture courses also give us the necessary skills to bring
these ideas to life. Whether you want to start your own business or
innovate an existing company, GLOBIS will inspire you and give you
the tools to achieve your goals.”

Case studies allow students to experience business
situations by putting themselves in the shoes of
management, facing business challenges that
occurred in real life. GLOBIS uses case studies from
the world’s most prominent business schools and
produces case studies focusing on Japanese and
Asian companies.
12 GLOBIS MBA
Rick ColbyUnited States, MBA of 2014
“GLOBIS classes allow you to actively participate, so you gain a much
deeper understanding of the concepts from the teacher and fellowstudents. Taking classes at night after work, I appreciate the fast-paced,
high energy classes and prefer them to passively listening to long
lectures. The curriculum focus is very practical and applicable to my
work, and because the lecturers are all practicing business professionals,
the case studies are an entry point to a wealth of current, real world
experience and insights. Listening to how these concepts are utilized in
contemporary business gives me an unparalleled edge.”

VENTURE CAPITAL
CORPORATE TRAINING
PUBLICATIONS
Beyond a Business SchoolGLOBIS is more than a Business School. GLOBIS supports
the development of human, capital and knowledge resourcesthrough its venture capital arm, corporate training programs,and publications.
Venture CapitalGLOBIS Capital Partners is a Japanese venture
capital firm actively developing companies that
reside in the technology, retail and healthcare
sectors. Since the launch of its first fund in 1996,
GLOBIS Capital Partners has grown to become one
of Japan’s leading venture capital firms, investing
in over 100 companies and overseeing several IPOs.
Many of GLOBIS’ faculty actively par ticipate in the
management of the venture companies we have
invested in and add their experiences and findings to
our curriculum. Being at the forefront of these start-
up companies gives us unique know-how that we
share with students eager to learn about the exciting
world of ventures.
Corporate TrainingWe entered the corporate training sector after some
of our students who were highly impressed by
our courses recommended GLOBIS to the human
resources departments of their companies. GLOBIS
Corporate Education aims to deliver customized
programs to each client with tailor-made curricula
and case studies that we closely relate to the clients’
interests and needs. This approach was radically
different from programs offered by conventional
training companies, most of which sold standard
off-the-shelf training packages. Such innovative
methods helped attract a stream of clients, allowing
GLOBIS’ corporate training to become a new stand-
alone business unit.
As of 2011, GLOBIS provided training programs
to more than 320 companies, with about 33,000
corporate managers and employees attending our
sessions. Through customized corporate programs,
we learn about the actual challenges companies
are dealing with and we actively participate in
formulating viable solutions to their problems.
The knowledge acquired through this process is
then converted back into teaching materials—thus
creating a virtuous circle between corporate training
and our school.
PublicationsTo disseminate our management wisdom, GLOBIS
decided to publish a 17-volume “GLOBIS MBA”
series, drawing upon our accumulated business
expertise. The books gained enormous popularity
due to their practicality and unique MBA insights,
with over 1.4 million copies sold in Japan. The
GLOBIS brand is now recognized by millions of
business people, and has been a synonym for
practicality and quality for the last two decades.

“Job-hunting in Japan can be really tough without
the right connections. As part of my MBA studies at
GLOBIS, I was able to gain an interns hip at a major
manufacturing company. This gave me a chance
to apply the skills I had been learning in class, and
after graduation the company offered me a job, so I
returned as an employee!”

Welcome to Japan, Welcome to GLOBISJapan is a stimulating country that blends ancient cultureand awe-inspiring world heritage sites with leading-edge
architecture and technology.
As Asia’s most advanced country, Japan offers
ncredible opportunities for international business
professionals, from bringing the world ground-
breaking engineering projects like the Shinkansen
bullet train, to industry re-defining electronics
and eco-vehicle technology. Japan is home to
nnovative companies like Nintendo, Sony and
Honda, making it the perfect place to study for an
MBA. An incredible, exciting country, Japan offers
unsurpassed opportunities for budding leaders. It
is truly a fertile ground for studying, investing and
living. If you want to become a world-class business
leader, Japan is the ideal country for you.
Japan, a fascinating country combining
spectacular historical beauty and
leading-edge innovation.
GLOBIS is located in the center of Japan’s capital, making it
the perfect choice for internationally minded business leaders.
Tokyo is a buzzing, first-class metropolis, home
to dozens of blue-chip companies and the world’s
largest metropolitan economy, with a GDP of
US$1.412 trillion.* It is a leading city in design,
fashion, architecture, engineering, technology
and finance.
Tokyo has a very highly developed infrastructure,
financial and political stability, a large number of
global financial institutions and the second-largest
stock market in the world (by market capitalization).
Tokyo is a ‘command center’ of the global economy
and yet a highly efficient, extremely safe, very
liveable city. From fashionable Shibuya, Ginza and
Harajuku, to bustling Shinjuku and Marunouchi,
Tokyo is truly a world-class metropolis.

Tokyo, a vibrant metropolis. Asia’s leading
business and cultural capital. A city of
constant innovation and regeneration.
Melissa MarquezThe Philippines, MBA of 2013
“Life in Tokyo is never, ever boring. Whether you want
to go shopping, sightseeing, or just chill out in a park
with friends, this city will offer you choices that no
other city can. It is also a great place to learn about
business – there are more Fortune 500 companies here
than anywhere else, and I think we can learn a lot from
the Japanese management style.”
