I think my guest on this episode demonstrates the power of the JET connection and experience - getting into a career that allows him to travel the world and learn - specifically about the way business practices are done globally.
Ryan Hata works in the event planning and project management space at Columbia Business School. As always, we don’t just talk about what he does as part of his job, but also expand into topics related to his work, like global business practices, and what innovation looks like in China and India.
Note: This will the final episode for 2025. After JET will be taking a break. Thanks to everyone who has been supporting and listening to the podcast.

My guest has done many things - started a non-profit while on JET, changed Japanese law, graduated from Oxford with a PhD, did a TEDx talk - but (spoiler alert) confesses that much of it was unplanned. We talk about the how and why of the Japanese institutional care of children, and what it means to make meaningful impact and finding your path without sweating the small stuff.
