- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.1 l Strategy
KJSE's mission : 'To improve mutual understanding between both Korean and Japanese students through cultural exchangeKJSE's vission : not clearly stated. (contributing to the friendliness between two coun-tries)The operational plans :focused on main events that KJSE holds annually
- relationship with each other, however, the specification of those lacked
- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.2 l Structure
KJSE member :formed with 1 president, 2 vice-presidents and about 25 general members
The president and vice-presidents discuss & decideabout main issues of KJSE
highly centralized organization !
- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.2 l Structure
General members are divided into several de-partmentsThe allocation of general members to these depart-ments is decided by general members themselves
However, on June to August, general members are sep-arated from their department and form ‘summer activ-ity teams’
focuses on member’s motivation rather than ability
What department members used to be doesn’t have any influence on forming summer activity teams
After the summer event, general members go back to their original department.
- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.2 l Structure
The relationship between senior and junior is very strict.
Since juniors have to show high respect to seniors, juniors are just tight with themselves not with seniors.
KJSE is somewhat separated by juniors group and seniors group
- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.2 l Structure
KJSE is boosted by a government department, ”KJWA”
KJWA? : Korea Japan Women Association
KJSE submit reports about their activities to KJWA. KJWA partly participates in KJSE’s decision making process.
KJSE gets 2,000,000 won from KJWA as a sponsorship every year
- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.3 l Systems
A clear information system was not clearly visible
Official reports describing details of summer program. But it is only accessible for the presidential group and not digitalized.
Reports merely contain mainly the writer’s personal feeling through the event, Rather than the information about the process of pre-paring.The reports are randomly allocated
the person who prepared certain event and who write a report about the event can be different.
- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.3 l Systems
The level of performance is not considered through the evaluating process
At the end of the year, Calculate the attendance score of each member and Reduce the amount of bonus supported by KJWA for whom gets low score
The group’s penalty system is based on the at-tendance

2.4 l Style
The quite a stubborn leader
-Centralized decision making
-Merely describing & persuading
-Leader believe there was no conflict in his term for now “members who have doubts and questions seem to understand the council's decision after he explains background information and situations”
- 2. McKinsey 7-S analy-sis2.5 l Shared Values
responsibility, cooperation, commitment, and openness.
- Top priority : responsibility.
- KJSE's president recognizes that members are not fully aware of shared value.
- The only way that KJSE reminds members of responsi-bility : informal addressing
Lack of recognizing responsibility,But there is no special training session or other channels for learning the responsi-bility
