Warren Arbuckle

Facilitator

Warren Arbuckle is fluent in both English and Japanese, has over 25 years of executive experience in Japan and has worked with multi-national companies across the globe.

He has spent the last 7 years developing business innovation strategies and working with Fortune 500 companies to help them apply these strategies.

His experience in training spans working with engineers for technical opportunity planning and project management to developing innovative value messaging skills for sales and marketing teams.

His signature program, Mastering Business Innovation, demystifies innovation, helping management, sales and R&D teams to think outside of the box. Teams learn how to work cross-functionally, developing new ways to create and promote new or current products and services. Many of his clients have been implementing this program for 3 or more years. The outcomes of the program are unique to the specific needs and challenges that the client faces.

In 2008, he published his first book on innovative problem solving for teams. Based on his Mastering Business Innovation program, this book introduces practical concepts and techniques for solving complex business issues through innovation. The last chapter of the book presents case studies from pharmaceutical, insurance, electronic manufactures and sales organizations that have gone through the program.

Continuing to innovate, in 2010, Warren launched the first online course on project management that allows managers and teams to better leverage the Internet for project communication and collaboration for multi-location or multi-cultural projects. Approved by the Project Management Institute for its 300,000 certified members, this course is designed for those new to project management.

Warren continues to live in Tokyo, delivering training courses in Japan and throughout the Asia Pacific.
