In recent years, with the advancement of technologies including generative AI and AI agents, companies are required to have transformation concepts that go beyond improving individual operations, and organizational drive forces to carry them out. On the other hand, there are many cases where the purpose of introduction remains unclear, and the focus is solely on using tools, failing to lead to business or organizational transformation. As advanced generative AI and AI agents become established as infrastructure for corporate activities, the urgent challenge for large companies is shifting from localized operational efficiency improvements to &quot;rebuilding the organizational culture throughout the entire company.&quot;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For AI to function effectively, it is essential to have a clear intention from management and future leaders, secure diverse talent to implement and operate it on the ground, and strengthen human capital to create an AI-ready organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on this understanding of the challenges, Cinnamon AI has developed training programs that can be taken in formats tailored to management, next-generation leaders, and the entire company. In addition to promoting understanding of AI utilization, the programs incorporate perspectives on corporate culture reform, work style reform, unlearning, reskilling, and DEI, providing the perspectives and practical foundation necessary to drive transformation in each company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">*Keidanren: AI Utilization Strategy - Towards the realization of
