目標は達成する
12/11~13まで行われた『エコプロダクツ2008』にジットも出展することができ、本当に良かったです。短い時間でしたが、会場へ私も行ってきました。
いくつかの企業のブースを回りましたが、周りに壁を作っているブースを見て、『人』もブースも、自分の周りに壁を作るのは閉じこもっているように感じました。殻は自分から取り外し、自分らしく、人間らしく生きることが大事だと思います。
今回の出展を通して、反省点がたくさんありました。ジットが、なぜ今回のイベントに参加したのか？出展したことに満足しただけでは幸せにはなれません。
『人は心』です。多くの企業が出展のためにブースへお金をかけている中で、私たちジットは“笑顔・姿勢・声”に重点を置き、来場された皆さんの対応を行いました。「来年は、もっと良いブースを作りたい」と、参加した社員の言葉に私も期待しています。
野球で例えるならば、チームジットは、営業メンバー、ネットがメインで、一番です。しっかりプレーしてもらうために、品質が検査し、サポートします。製造が良い製品を作ります。経理・人事・総務、皆、営業メンバーのためにいます。営業は、絶対に目標を達成しなければなりません。
工場も、『たっぷりント』の成功を見据えて、人員を募集しています。成功できなければ働く人は、いらないのです。3年前から取り組んできた特許の取得ができました。これは当たり前のことです。目標は、達成するものだからです。成功する人は、成功するまで努力をしているのです。成功できない人は、色んな理由をつけて周りのせい、環境のせいにします。
賞与面接のときには、良く頑張った、と私は皆に伝えたいと思います。仕事への生きがい、収入からも幸せになれるように、これから厳しく指導していきます。
方向性が違う人がいると、小さな問題が大きな問題へと発展していきます。ひとりひとりが目標をクリアしていけるように、今日も一日、品質重視でお願い致します。
2008 Eco Products Exhibition
This past week, JIT participated in the 2008 Eco Products exhibition (Tokyo, Dec. 11~13th) in which JIT was able to participate Although I was only able to attend for a short time, I truly enjoyed myself.
As I walked around the exhibition, looking at booths of various companies, it struck me that humans are like these booths in that both have put up walls around themselves. In the case of humans, it is a way to shut oneself away from others. But I believe it is important to remove this shell, to be yourself, to be human.
Looking back at this year’s display, there were many points that bear reconsideration. Why did JIT participate in this year’s exhibition? We cannot be happy merely because we participated.
It is people who are the core. Contrary to many of the companies who put a lot of money into their booths, JIT emphasized its employees’ “smile, attitude, and voice” in their interaction with those who visited our booth. Nevertheless, we hope to create an even better booth next year.
I would here like to compare “Team JIT” to a number one baseball team wherein the sales personnel and internet staff are our main players. In order to be a steady force, the quality needs to be checked and support needs to be given. Manufacturing produce good products and accounting, HR, and general affairs will all work hard for our sales personnel. Sales must, therefore, absolutely accomplish their goals.
We are currently in the process of recruiting personnel for our DoubleJet factory. However, if DoubleJet is not successful, those workers will not be necessary. Although obtaining a patent is a common enough thing, it took us three years of struggle to finally get the patent for DoubleJet. Why were were finally successful? It is because success was our objective. The people who are successful in life are those who work ceaselessly until they achieve success. Unsuccessful people, on the other hand, will give up, blaming their failures on those around them and their circumstances.
During the interviews before bonuses are handed out, I hope to be able to tell everyone, “You worked hard. Well done.” In order for work to become my employee’s raison d’etre, for JIT’S revenue to be a source of happiness for them, I will be an even stronger leader. If there is someone with a different objective here, small problems will become large problems. One by one, we must achieve our objectives and today, just as every other day, stress the importance of quality in our products.
