Question the conventional wisdom about how we work! Based on research findings (evidence) from researchers around the world, why not reassess the "ways of working" we consider common sense? We will welcome Goryu Sato, a health economics researcher and full-time lecturer at Keio University, who recently published "The Science of Working" with Diamond Inc., to hear him speak.
