To start a new year from today! My Special day March 10th, 20202 birthday in CHEZ MATSUO

To start a new year from today!

Please enjoy yourself. The main player of your life is always you.

Never looking back, we are making what we should see now and who is right in front of us happy.

The accumulated results may be creating the "future" that should be.



Trust and contribution

-        continue to exceed all of curiosity.

Investment in the future weaves the time.

-        Invisible, intangible assets form the world and give it persistence to the future.

Recently, teleworking such as telecommuting has become popular, and there are many working styles without fixing work location. In fact, we often see business people working in various places, such as cafes and trains.



However, from the standpoint of the companies that have already introduced teleworking, I think there are still many issues to be cleared. It's not just an introduction of laptop computer and attendance management. If security measures are not properly implemented, information leak happened once could result in a corporate survival crisis. Thus, there are many barriers that companies must overcome in order to safely start teleworking.



Leaders like us and management members should understand that they need to rely on each personnel’s ability and communication to enhance “ESG (employee satisfaction grade) “ will be indispensable while teleworking will be business standard in the near future.



To whom "Corporate" belongs?

In addition to in-laws’ non-involvement in business policy, support for women's participation can no longer be ignored. It is becoming necessary for each person to act with an entrepreneurial spirit and a mindset like management. Always be aware of being "watched by people" and give full consideration in working outside and at home, especially conversation in open areas in the city, PC operation, smartphone operation. I suppose it is natural to think that each person's values are different, but it is necessary to be aware of the “professional attitude” on these occasions.



Above all, only companies that are realizing "information turns into money" policy have survived and are leading the way now. But to get winning credit is not easy. That is why it is the secret of the brand's development, "Technology is extraordinary."

And I think there are three universal teachings on brand growth;

Concordia (harmony), Integrities (integrity) and Industries (industrious).

I think it's okay to be strict in following these teachings.

Have a flat point of view and never give up.

"Harmony" is a hint to "eternality", which means harmony with society, and how to achieve it

is important. I think it is the mission of people living today to pass on tangible assets, intangible culture and historical episodes.



Taking pride in the great cultural heritage that mankind has left and responding to these with respect should be abide by not just within own country but as humankind. Wealth is not just invisible assets. When I worked with a foreign-affiliated chemical company for the first time, about three years after my entry, we had so many audits within a year. Every day, PL / BS, books and the data were scrutinized in detail.



To the extent of saying “Nothing to hide anymore!” or “We can't hide anything!”, while we were so exhausted both physically and mentally, with being directed to specify the color of the confirmation evidence and even the place where the confirmation was stated, etc., I can’t forget an auditor’s asking at that time, "What else is your company's property?". When I answered just three seconds later, "The infinite potential of our employees, the value of each personnel’s talent is an intangible property we can even boast to our competitors." he said with cool smile, "Well, then please capitalize on the value of talent!"



A control manager next to us, who is always giving us hardship, laughed very happily for a moment.

Since then, "to capitalize on the value of talent" has turned into one of my strong strategies.

My career has changed from a world of numbers to a world of abilities, fascinated by the technology of competency. The important thing on recruiting is whether the leader actually knows the characteristics of each member.



To achieve this, it is necessary to keep communicating.

Now, in a digital society, I think that it is necessary to communicate with members through SNS just because they are people who cannot be seen in front of us.

"Difficulties and challenges are just with gratitude." It’s a proof that one took an action without being seen by people. The other party feels rich while talking with us. Because there are no promises, we, the professionals, are just striving with every effort. Thank you for the opportunity, and on my birthday today, I will be a person who can make the opportunity.



Really like a cloud that can be real partner for you USA SPACES,

by the way, today, let’s follow the legendary succeeded person on the cover of Forbes JAPAN in April 2020! I was shocked by the title call of the "10 trillion yen man" ’s teaching, and here I deliver the essence that I got from reading at a stretch with some addition.

 Believe in your intuition and go one step further.

 Never stop, go forward.

Among the words left by Eleanor Roosevelt, there is,

`` To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart. ''

I think it's important to show members that leader should take the initiative,

to activate, attract members and let them move.



“Your smile is wonderful!”

By being told as such, I have the excitement that springs out from the bottom of my heart and fill throughout my body.

And it is the manager who wants to be a comfortable person who can "laugh at the heart."



There is an actress I like, Rie Miyazawa.

When I read her interview with Shigesato Itoi in AERA, and saw her words with a smile saying, "I think hardship is a reward," I couldn't be there, but I definitely felt like a friendly, loving and cheerful conversation between them.

Actress Sharon Stone and Seiko Matsuda have the same birthday with me, March 10th.

Sincerely,

KEIKO
