I am committed to creating a good company, an interesting company, a company where employees truly want to work. On weekends when I have no plans, I walk my dog and watch recorded TV shows. I play golf about twice a month, go hiking in summer, and skiing in winter. In junior high and high school I was on the track team, so I ran hard. In college I did windsurfing. My motto is 'Posture reaches heaven' – in other words, if you are sincere and diligent in everything, your feelings will reach heaven and move people. That's what I strive for. Yesterday I had salad, yaccon, furofuki daikon, and hamburger for dinner. As a new employee, why did I choose this company? In college I often read historical novels, especially Ryotaro Shiba's 'Byoma ga Iku', which says 'Humans are born to accomplish something.' I wanted to achieve something through work, and I wanted a job where I could use my own abilities. Since I wasn't an engineer, I chose a company where I could sell products. I was assigned to the Osaka office, where I sold loading arms. I think I was a cute new employee. I worked hard and wanted to become a capable person who could contribute. After six years in Osaka, I was transferred to Tokyo headquarters. My boss there was Mr. Yamamoto. Looking back, I was able to work fully under his guidance. When he suddenly passed away, I decided I had to stand on my own. I always want to be true to myself, listen to others, and if employees want to try something, I don't deny them but let them do it. Now, let's move to the next topic: our group strategy. We aim to be a constantly growing corporate group, targeting a 1 trillion yen group. We will transform into a business development type group with a business development mindset. While maintaining a solid existing business foundation, we will continuously create businesses that solve societal problems. I want everyone to have an overwhelming sense of ownership and demonstrate strong execution. Work that is delegated or not taken personally cannot bring out power. No matter how good the ideas, without execution they are meaningless. So I want everyone to have the power to see things through. I believe the kind of person who can value others is important. You can never value people too much, and you can never be too strict with yourself. If you can value people, you can work happily at Tokyo Boeki. We have committees for work style reform, compliance, and diversity and inclusion promotion. These are important, but employee happiness is management itself, a key management issue, and we will think about it seriously. To students interested in the Tokyo Boeki Group: Please view job hunting positively. Make it an excellent opportunity to find what you want to do and the career you want to build. Let's create an exciting future together at the Tokyo Boeki Group.
