>>108983743>Currently, there are between 50 to 60 managers. Organizationally the division is broadly structured into three groups – hololive JP Talent Management Division, hololive global Division, and HOLOSTARS Talent Management Division – with multiple teams operating within each division. Instead of merely expanding headcounts, responsibilities are assigned flexibly based on each talent’s level of activity and the scale of their projects. In some cases, multiple managers work as a team, dividing roles to support individual talent activities, creating a structure that allows the organization to consistently provide backup support.
>At present, each manager supports an average of two talents. In fact, during the early stage of the group, there was a period when a single manager supported as many as nine talents. However, when the number of assigned talents becomes excessive, it becomes difficult to secure sufficient resources for each individual’s activities, so in order to create an environment where talents can perform at their best and managers can focus on providing high-quality support, the organization has expanded its staffing and continues to refine its structure.
>Starting in 2025, we have been holding regular “talent interviews,” in which members of the management team, including President Tanigo, engage in direct dialogue with talents. One manager alone was previously responsible for receiving and carrying both a talent’s thought and the realities of the field. While managers made a dedicated effort to listen and note those comments, communication conducted through a single point inevitably had limitations. Subtle nuances and the powerful enthusiasm talents wanted to deliver directly to the management team could not always be conveyed across the organization with complete clarity and 100% fidelity.
In addition to on-site managers who play as talents’ closest understanding partners, we have set up an additional channel that enables direct connection with the management team. This approach allows talents’ genuine voices to be heard from multiple perspectives and backed up by the organization as a whole.
