Hall of Fame: Exploring Organizational Culture and Personal Challenge Through the Lens of Science on August 14, 2025

To deepen our commitment to talent development and the shaping of organizational culture,
Taiwan Otsuka Pharmaceutical had the honor of inviting Professor Yang Yen-Kuang from National Cheng Kung University for a special lecture.
With insights drawn from neuroscience and human evolution,
Professor Yang guided attendees through a fresh scientific perspective on the fundamental question:
“What is culture?” and its profound impact on organizational dynamics.

The event brought together enthusiastic participants from both the company headquarters and factory,
fostering cross-functional learning and collaboration.
It provided a valuable opportunity for team members to reexamine the concept of organizational culture and explore how it connects with their day-to-day professional practices.

From a scientific standpoint, the formation of culture is not a matter of chance.
It stems from the evolutionary need for humans to cooperate and share values as a group.
When an organization cultivates clear, shared beliefs that align with the way our brains operate,
it naturally fosters a sense of belonging and creativity, driving team momentum forward.

Professor Yang's compelling talk left a lasting impression on every attendee,
making it clear that culture is not merely an abstract idea—but a concrete force that shapes our everyday behavior.
In this fast-changing world, Taiwan Otsuka Pharmaceutical firmly believes that it is through the wisdom
and selfless dedication of each colleague that we can truly embody our cultural philosophy:
“Centered on people, co-creating the extraordinary,” and together write a future filled with boundless innovation.
