This paper refutes the folklore of the Japanese company built upon front-line employees and middle-class managers. The folklore most likely originated from the realities that prevailed during the 1980s, and gained general acceptance through the 1990s. In fact, the data that reflects Japan's reality as of 1995 and 2010 are consistent with the folklore, but the data of 1965 and 1980 are incon¬sistent with die folklore. The paper thus concludes that the folklore fails to take into account the founding period of Japanese companies. It further establishes that the role the hands-on, top executives played during the founding period of a company is far greater than normally believed. The folklore arises because re¬searchers almost always equate the Japanese company with the largest of the companies in the country. It is worth noting that even the top executives of the largest Japanese companies remained in their positions well over ten years during die founding period. Through these analyses, this paper refutes a popu¬larly held belief about Japanese companies.
