The corporate strategy to aim the growth of the size of the company failed with the burst of bubble economy. Downsizing, outsourcing, and divestment are the corporate strategies to centralize management resources to their core business. Though many researches about diversification strategies are executed, the research on business withdrawal strategy is few, especially in Japanese companies. It is not easy for the management to change the way of thinking from the expansion of the sales scale to concentrate the business resources to competitive business domain. Transformation of the top management value system, business objective, and organizational structure become necessary.
