Sensemaking Processes of Japanese Companies in Asia

从台湾华人社团、香港华人社团和大陆华人社团中国的实地考察结果来看，这三个华人社团的长期服务员工通过对日本公司的长期承诺而获得了晋升。通过积累与日本侨民的大量互动和共同记忆，他们可以理解日本侨民或日本总部。这一过程被称为日本企业的“二次社会化过程”(Berger&Luckmann 1966)，这是台湾、香港和大陆的日本制造企业的“轰动效应”过程(Weick1995)。

From the results of the fieldwork conducted in the Chinese societies of Taiwan, Hong Kong and Mainland China, the long service employees in the three Chinese societies have moved up in their positions through their long-term commitment to the Japanese companies. By accumulating a lot of interactions and shared memories with Japanese expatriates, they can make sense of Japanese expatriates or Japanese HQs. This process is called a "secondary socialization process" (Berger & Luckmann 1966) of Japanese companies and this is a process of "sensemaking" (Weick 1995) in Japanese manufacturing companies in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Mainland China.
