Episode 7: Kenichi Ohmae - biography
Kenichi Ohmae is a business consultant, social reformer, author
and journalist, adviser to governments and business entrepreneur,
he has a doctorate in nuclear engineering from the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology - and is a motor cycling enthusiast. For
a period of twenty-three years, Dr. Ohmae was a partner in McKinsey
& Company, Inc., the international management consulting firm.
Kenichi Ohmae is Japanese and lives in Tokyo but he is instinctively
global.
He has written over one hundred books, many of them on Japanese
public policy issues. Only half a dozen or so have
made their mark in the West but these have been hugely
influential, not least in explaining Japan to the rest of
the world.
He now resides in Tokyo with his wife, Jeannette, and two sons,
who share his spare-time interest in music, sailing, marshal arts,
motorcycles, and scuba diving.
