In other words, one and one equals three! It comes from the Greek "synergia," which means joint work and cooperative action. . Policy on Profit Distribution With the ultimate aim of enhancing corporate value, our basic policy is to seek a comprehensive improvement in enhancing shareholder value by distributing as much profit as may be permitted by our current year earnings position, while at the same time retaining sufficient profit to strengthen the group's financial position.

Specifically, we will pursue a growth strategy from the perspective of "further strengthening our strong businesses" ("VI strategy": reinforcing individual businesses; and "AD strategy": reinforcing the solutions business across multiple business fields. Further, we will promote "global integration," in which we aim to establish an optimal business structure from a global perspective and reinforce our business organization including area marketing and risk management centering on the high growth Chinese market.

See alpha blending. of our management while also being used to reinforce the supervision of management and achieve sustainable growth. The transfer to "Company with Committee" structure has enabled a separation of supervision over management from executive functions Executive functions is a term synonymous with cognitive control, and used by psychologists and neuroscientists to describe a loosely defined collection of brain processes whose role is to guide thought and behaviour in accordance with internally generated goals or plans. , and now the board of directors is exercising the supervision over management and the executive officers are handling the management execution function. In addition, certain broad authority that had been within the exclusive realm of the board of directors has been transferred to the executive officers. Mitsubishi Electric presently has twelve directors (of which five are outside directors) providing advice and supervision to our company's management from an objective perspective. An auditing committee, nomination NOMINATION, This word has several significations. 1. An appointment; as, I nominate A B, executor of this my last will. 2. A proposition; the word nominate is used in this sense in the constitution of the United States, art. 2, s. committee and compensation committee have been established as internal organizations of the board of directors and each committee is comprised of five directors (of which three are outside directors).
