Creating a Type Community and Business in Japan—Harumi Gondo

October 8, 2022 @ 2:45 pm 3:45 pm Australia/Sydney

Creating a Type Community and Business in Japan – How I went from charging 100 to 100,000 yen a session

Harumi Gondo got off the plane from the US to Tokyo 9 years ago. She barely spoke the language and experienced severe culture shock in Japan. She went from knowing nothing about the culture and knowing no one to managing a busy type community of mothers and a growing business contracting the team of mothers who have now become expert practitioners in Type.

She will share her experiences with Japanese mothers, who highly prioritize conformity and keeping their mouth shut. She will also share her experience in building a growth-based Type community and how she as an ENFJ avoided poverty and poor health to achieving a six figure income through knowing and developing her Type.

Harumi Gondo

Harumi Gondo was certified in MBTI in 2013 and began training others in Type the day after she was certified. She has over 8000 hours of training experience. She established a type-based community in Japan and founded a company that runs training for companies.
