Our Unique Culture
Otsuka is a dynamic and vibrant organization made up of motivated individuals we call Otsuka-people—people who have a shared mission for creating new products for better health worldwide. We live by our purpose: defy limitation, so that others can too. This purpose gives meaning to our work and motivates and drives us each day.
The people of Otsuka care. Our culture is to be better every day, to maximize our talents so we can serve and leave this world a better place.
Who We Are
Curious
We live to learn and discover. That’s why we never stop asking questions: Why? How? What if? Our inquisitive nature keeps us searching for the right answers, not just the obvious ones.
Courageous
We dare to do what others will not. We know it is the only way we can make a meaningful impact on the lives of those we serve. We will face adversity, but we will not let it keep us from doing what’s right.
Distinctive
We are authentic and stay true to ourselves, without artifice or urge to imitate. We commit ourselves to the development of products and services that only Otsuka could conceive and make a reality.
What We Believe In
Perseverance
We persist to do what’s right and what matters.
Unconventional thinking
We live to create and discover a better way.
Humility
We unite to serve the needs of others before our own.
What Unites Us
There are two core principles based on our Japanese heritage by which all Otsuka-people have lived for nearly a century. Today, they continue to serve as the foundation of our culture, embodying who we are and how we will achieve our goals.
