Program Description In today's world, various risks, such as disasters, health issues, and concerns about future livelihoods, are widespread. How can we prepare for these times and build peace of mind? Our new program, "SOMPO PLUS ACTIONS," is a series exploring these questions with the Sompo Group. The Group's purpose is "Toward a future filled with security, health, and wellbeing." What are top management thinking and how do they make decisions to achieve this? We will uncover the type of society the Group envisions by looking at the origins and true identities of its leaders. Our first guest is Mikio Okumura, CEO, President and Representative Executive Officer of the Sompo Group. He joined the company after studying soccer in Brazil, then left the company and rejoined. How does this leader with such an unusual background envision the Group's future? We will delve into his vision. Sponsored by SOMPO Holdings https://www.sompo-hd.com/ Note: In the video, Mr. Okumura's profile is stated as follows: "He joined an investment bank in 2006 and returned in 2012 as a special general manager with the Americas division." However, the correct statement is, "He joined an investment bank in 2006 and returned in 2009." We apologize for the error and would like to correct this.
