This conceptual research study focuses on to provide a framework on whether Japanese omikoshi management techniques can be applied in traditional Western management style or not and to suggest its potential effects. The Industrial Revolution began in the 18th century in Great Britain, and it spread rapidly to other countries in Europe and the U.S and then to other parts of the world. Though some Eastern countries, including Japan, began undergoing industrial revolutions and process of economic transformation later than the West, it’s obvious that Japanese companies have dramatically brought their competitive challenge to the early-industrialized Western states within the concept of organizational management and superior manufacturing management systems since 1960s. In sum, this study gives an insight into the main principles in the Western management and Japanese management techniques by comparing their major notions and argues omikoshi management techniques and its prospective outcomes when it is applied to the today’s Western management style.
