Hakuhodo Institute of Life and Living ASEAN

The centerpiece of Hakuhodo’s philosophy is sei-katsu-sha insight. Here at Hakuhodo we describe people not simply as consumers but as sei-katsu-sha—fully rounded individuals with their own lifestyles, aspirations, and dreams. In economics the term consumer is used in contradistinction to producer. Though handy, it has only a narrow meaning. But human beings don’ t exist solely to consume. There’s much more to them than that. They are residents, citizens, voters, and maybe workers. Each falls into a certain age group—child, young person, middle-aged, elderly—and is an individual male or female in their own right. Each is somebody’s son or daughter, and perhaps a parent. At Hakuhodo we use the term sei-katsu-sha to encompass all these facets of the human condition. Going beyond the consumer to understand the whole person and imagine the products and services they desire: that’s the Hakuhodo approach.
