What do you do to get under the layer to really get down to those lower levels? Is it just follow-up questions, mindset, worldview, and how that works for you? How'd you get this job anyway? What are things like around here? What did your boss do before they were your boss? Wow did you end up with this job? Why are questions such a big part of This is Strategy? If you had to charge ten times as much as you charge now, what would you do differently? If it had to be free, what would you do differently? Who's it for, and what's it for? What is the change we seek to make? How did you choose the questions for The Strategy Deck? How big is our circle of us? How many people do I care about? Is the change we're making contagious? Are there other ways to gamify the use of questions? Any other thoughts on how questions might be gamified? How do we play games with other people where we're aware of what it would be for them to win and for us to win? What is it that you're challenged by? What is it that you want to share? What is it that you're afraid of? If there isn't a change, then why are we wasting our time? Can you define tension? What kind of haircut do you want? How long has it been since your last haircut? How might one think about intentionally creating that question? What factors should someone think about as they use questions to create tension? How was school today? What is the kind of interaction I'm hoping for over time? How do I ask a different sort of question that over time will be answered with how was school today? Were there any easy questions on your math homework? Did anything good happen at school today? What tension am I here to create? What wrong questions continue to be asked? What temperature is it outside? When the person you could have been meets the person you are becoming, is it going to be a cause for celebration or heartbreak? What are the questions we're going to ask each other? What was life like at the dinner table when you were growing up? What are we really trying to accomplish? How do you have this cogent two sentence explanation of what you do? How many clicks can we get per visit? What would happen if there was a webpage that was designed to get you to leave? What were the questions that were being asked by people in authority at Yahoo in 1999? How did the stock do today? Is anything broken? What can you do today that will make the stock go up tomorrow? What are risks worth taking? What are we doing that might not work but that supports our mission? What was the last thing you did that didn't work, and what did we learn from it? What have we done to so delight our core customers that they're telling other people? How has your international circle informed your life of questions? What do I believe that other people don't believe? What do I see that other people don't see? What do I take for granted that other people don't take for granted? What would blank do? What would Bob do? What would Jill do? What would Susan do? What happened to them? What system are they in that made them decide that that was the right thing to do? And then how do we change the system? How given the state of the world, do you manage to continue to care as much as you do? Do you walk to school or take your lunch? If you all can only care if things are going well, then what does that mean about caring? Should I have spent the last 50 years curled up in a ball? How do we go to the foundation and create community action?…

“Has Japan solved the problem of homelessness? And even if it has not, what lessons for other countries does the Japanese experience have to offer? According to Japanese government statistics, Japan’s street homeless population peaked in 2003 at 25,296. The figure for 2023 was 2,830 – 2,575 men, 172 women, and 73 ‘unclear’. That is an 89% decline. Of course these figures must be treated with caution, but there seems little doubt that Japan’s street homeless population is far lower than most other industrialized countries. So has Japan virtually “solved” the problem of homelessness? Or is the truth more complex? This podcast will outline the reasons for Japan’s low homeless population, explore problems that still remain, and discuss ways in which the Japanese experience may offer hints to other countries struggling with large and growing homeless populations. The panel includes a Japanese homeless activist and the manager of a homeless shelter in Yokohama, as well as British and American academic specialists in the field. Organizer: Tom Gill, Professor of Social Anthropology, Meiji Gakuin University Other members: Masao Seno, head of the Hamakaze Living Autonomy Support Centre, Yokohama Tetsuo Ogawa, homeless activist Matthew Marr, Associate Professor of Sociology, Florida International University Profiles of Panelists Tom Gill is Professor of Social Anthropology at Meiji Gakuin University and author of Yokohama Street Life: The Precarious Career of a Japanese Day Laborer (Lexington Books, 2015). Masao Seno is head of Hamakaze, the only municipal homeless shelter in Yokohama, Japan’s second-biggest city, and as such at the cutting edge of homeless policy in Yokohama. Tetsuo Ogawa has been living in a homeless community in Tokyo’s Yoyogi Park for many years, and is an articulate advocate for the rights of homeless people. Matthew Marr has studied homelessness in the USA and Japan, and is the author of Better Must Come (Cornell University, 2015), a comparative study of homelessness in Los Angeles and Tokyo.
