ゴルフは雑談ではない──日本企業に残る“踏み絵”の正体
Update: 2025-12-14
Description
In this episode, I examine why golf in Japanese corporate culture is not simply a form of casual communication. Using the historical concept of the fumie—a test of obedience rather than belief—I argue that corporate golf functions as a loyalty test. What is really being measured is not conversation skill, but willingness to sacrifice personal time, money, and privacy for the organization. Drawing from my own experience in manufacturing sales, I explain how this structure reinforces hierarchy and conformity, especially in Japanese companies. Understanding this hidden mechanism helps explain why many people feel exhausted, undervalued, and trapped in corporate life.
