Introducción traducida al inglés desde el japonés por un traductor automático (DeepL):

As globalisation of the world progresses, universities and other higher education institutions are required more than ever to nurture human resources who can play an active role in the world, and there is a growing demand for education for international students. As a result, business Japanese language education in recent years has been shifting from a place of language formality acquisition and language skill acquisition to a place of human development.

So what kind of people are companies actually looking for? The Basic Skills for Working People (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry 2006) is a summary of the abilities that companies look for in working people. It can be said to be the basic skills needed to enter society and work with a wide range of people. The 'basic skills for working adults' refer to three skills and 12 ability elements: the ability to step forward (initiative, initiative and ability to work), the ability to think things through (problem-finding, planning and creativity) and the ability to work in a team (ability to communicate, listening, flexibility, understanding of situations, discipline and stress control).

In order to acquire the 'basic skills of a working adult', it is necessary not only to 1) know each ability element, but also 2) correctly understand how these abilities are demonstrated and 3) correctly understand how much of these abilities you possess, and be aware of them in your daily life. This book uses the novel series 'Shitamachi Rocket' (the first four novels) as its subject matter, and aims to teach the 12 basic skills for working adults that are necessary in society.

We believe it will be useful for many people, including international students and trainees, in career education classes for high school and university students and in training for new recruits at companies.
