<Background>

Yuki has spent nearly 20 years in pharmaceutical firm, including work experiences in a domestic company, a global company and a regulatory authority, mainly dealing with a global development of pharmaceutical products. She had spent most of her career working as a “working mother” and also has experience leading teams as a manager (the percentage of women in management position in Japan is only less than 15%, and Yuki is one of them).

 

Despite the pleasure of developing drugs for the patients with unmet medical needs with team members around the globe, she also suffered the difficulty in keeping the life-work balance; keeping responsibilities both at work and at home as a working mother.

 

With such experiences and qualified skills, she now supports women leaders and leaders-to-be who suffers with mother’s guilt, overwhelming to-do’s and time limitations, despite the will to seek their career goal through counseling/coaching/mentoring sessions. Yuki also supports managers who wishes to encourage working mothers and/or women leaders, and English-speaking managers who are facing difficulties managing the organization due to cultural differences.

 

Not only does she provide such sessions, based on her skills as a business person, she also delivers seminars/trainings on business skills, careers, communication skills, management skills, etc. Her seminars/training has been well received as it contains many actual experiences.
