The Dojo Philosophy

In a dojo, the master does not merely instruct — the master works alongside the student.

Learning happens through doing. Mastery comes from practice, not theory. We bring this philosophy to every engagement — embedding ourselves within your operations, not observing from the outside.

Not Consultants. Operators.

Traditional consulting firms hand you a report and leave. We take charge, deploy our team, and execute.

From crisis containment to regulatory navigation, our team is on-ground, accountable, and outcome-driven. Issue at 6 PM? Our team is on-site by 6 AM.

6 PM → 6 AM

About Inojo

A philosophy encoded in our identity.

That experience taught him what no business school could: how to operate under extreme duress, maintain stakeholder trust during chaos, and build resilient systems that survive crisis.

Anonymized engagements showcasing our on-ground execution across crisis management, interim leadership, and business transformation.

Scrap & Security Transformation

Fortune Global 500 Japanese Steel MNC

6+ years (ongoing)

Challenge

Multi-state scrap management across 10+ locations was leaking value through vendor fraud, safety non-compliance, and zero digital oversight. Security operations were fragmented.

Our Action

Deployed a 12-member team across all sites. Implemented AI-powered weighbridge monitoring, standardized vendor contracts, and overhauled security protocols for 2,000+ acre facilities.

Result

₹30 Cr annual scrap recovery optimized. Zero security incidents in 18 months. Vendor ecosystem reduced from 200+ to 45 certified partners.

Plant Closure & Regulatory

Leading Japanese Glass Manufacturer

8 months

Challenge

Mandated closure of a major manufacturing plant due to regulatory non-compliance. 500+ workers, government pressure, and community opposition made this a potential disaster.

Our Action

On-site team deployed within 24 hours. Managed worker retrenchment per labor law, negotiated with local government, handled environmental compliance, and managed media.

Result

Plant closed within timeline. Zero labor disputes filed. Full regulatory compliance achieved. Community relations maintained.

Shareholder Dispute Resolution

Japan Elevator Services

14 months

Challenge

Complex shareholder dispute threatening to paralyze operations. Multiple stakeholders, legal proceedings, and operational disruption across the company.

Our Action

Interim leadership deployed. Stabilized day-to-day operations while navigating legal proceedings. Mediated between factions and protected business continuity.

Result

Operations maintained throughout dispute. Revenue protected. Resolution achieved through structured negotiation.

When we needed someone at our plant at 6 AM the next morning, Inojo didn't ask why — they asked which gate to report to. That's the difference.
