Thurs., July 2nd – Pink Cow Connections –
Presented in English
Welcome to PCC monthly networking seminar!
Feel free to post messages, comments or questions on our facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=72101140281

Welcome to PCC monthly networking seminar presented in English!
The PCC is a group that comes together to help us, as creative business people, help ourselves and each other. We have guest speakers, learning programs, and networking. The PCC events are designed to "bring together people building businesses" in a creative, casual atmosphere that facilitates intelligent conversation and business connections. Great food, drinks, information and people.
Pink Cow Connections #64: WorkVitamins, Bringing Perspective to the Office:
“Maximizing your working environment assets. Productive spaces to improve your business.”
Please welcome speaker: Martin van der Linden
Anyone who has worked for a typical Japanese corporation has horror stories to tell about the workplace. The rows and rows of small, steel desks with files and paper stacked above and below, the colour tones of Stalinist grey evenly distributed throughout the whole space except for the yellow smoking room , the artistic coffee stains on the carpet, the direct translation of the company's hierarchy onto the design (buchos on the window, kachos on the end of each row, last hire at the end of the row), the blinds that are consistently closed and despite the top location of the office allow no views outside, etc.. etc... Is it any wonder that Japan has one of the world's highest suicide rates? Studies have shown that the work environment has a significant influence on our well being. The work environment is business' last frontier, as companies should stop to treat their work space as a warehouse crammed with stuff and staff. It is time to view the work environment as a powerful motivational tool to create a place where people enjoy working in, encourages communication and team work. The workplace can either hinder or encourage this.
During the presentation Martin will show an analysis of a typical office and the potential for change. He will explain about the methodology he created called WorkVitamins, which through a series of 5 steps has helped his clients to implement a work environment where work can actually be fun. At the end of the presentation he will also briefly discuss a book he is writing on the subject, including the growing influence that the internet has on our rapidly changing definition of what work is.
Martin has taught and practiced architecture and design in Japan since the early 1990s. He is chief executive of van der Architects, a design and project management firm he set up in 2000, and an adjunct professor of architecture at Tokyo University of Science. His clients include Fortune 500 companies such as Ernst & Young, ING Group, Societe Generale and WPP Group.
Martin has designed and planned at several leading offices including Hiroshi Hara + Atelier, where he worked on JR Kyoto Station and Osaka’s Umeda Sky Building, Cesar Pelli & Associates and Kyoiku Shisetsu Kenkyujo. He lectured at the universities of Musashino Art, Waseda and the United Nations, and also spent time at the Bureau for Architecture and Urban Design in London.
His professional affiliations include membership of the Architects Institute of Japan as well as board memberships of the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce in Japan and the American Institute of Architects Japan.
A Dutch national, Martin has an MSc in Engineering Product Design from London’s Southbank University and a BSc in Interior and Industrial Design from the Academy of Fine Art Maastricht. He also was a visiting student on the Fuji-Hara Laboratory master’s course at Tokyo University.

The ??(Nu Nu) Music Listening Experience is a new way for artists to be heard and receive feedback about their particular sound, style, single release test responses, and marketability. Serious artists wishing to gain new fans and penetrate earlobes are encouraged to submit their music. The public is exposed to new music by premiering it in an active listening environment that is outside of a club atmosphere, and not as demanding as website online players and rating systems. Participants objectively listen or passively lounge in the mood while completing a survey about a featured selection.The venues of the Nu Nu change in order to diversify the listening audience and atmosphere to receive artist’s music. The Nu Nu aims to be the premiere live listening event, artist breaking channel, and greater Tokyo Metro’s DJ and promoter import circuit.
