[Column] ② Companies are designed to fail.

I would like to introduce a column article.

How many years has it been since your company was founded? According to the Small and Medium Enterprise White Paper, the survival rates of companies born over ten years are as follows: the survival rate after one year (newborn) is about 72%. The survival rate after three years (kindergarten) is about 50%. The survival rate after five years (senior kindergarten) is about 40%. The survival rate after ten years (fourth grade) is about 26%. In other words, the probability of surviving for ten years is only 30%, which highlights the difficulty of survival compared to human survival rates. Looking at the trend of bankruptcies at economic turning points: - COVID-19 (2020): 7,773 cases. - Normal period (2019): 8,631 cases. - Great Earthquake (2011): 12,707 cases. - Lehman Brothers (2009): 13,306 cases. - Bubble (1987): 12,655 cases. The factors leading to bankruptcy vary with changes in the environment, but bankruptcies occur in every era, regardless of whether the economy is good or bad.

[Column] ➃-➂ Small and medium-sized enterprise presidents are critical in their judgments.

I would like to introduce a column article.

■Managers value perseverance and the basics They are persistently vocal. Whenever they see their employees, they repeatedly discuss fundamental matters. - Keep promises to customers - Greet properly - Do not cause trouble for others - Keep time, and the list goes on. They always consider the balance of being a reasonable person, which makes them particular about manners and ethics, and they absolutely hate being lied to or promises being broken. ■Managers are people who judge black and white Managers of small and medium-sized enterprises have developed their own coping strategies. They do not see struggles as struggles; they train themselves not to show it, learn ways to alleviate feelings of loneliness, and have ingrained the ability to accept both good and bad. Managers are people who make black-and-white judgments. However, there are also gray areas where it is better not to make a judgment or where judgment is not possible. Various things happen. Even if they understand intellectually, there are many things they do not want to accept emotionally. At such times, they may resort to drinking to vent. If they rely on alcohol all the time, it will harm their health. Therefore, they learn to navigate life naturally.

[Column] ➃-➄ Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises' Presidents are a Race: Business Leaders are Always Forward-Looking

I would like to introduce a column article.

Always positive, with high creativity and proposal skills. Constantly thinking about the next step by utilizing what is currently available and what is currently being done. The basic nature is frugal. However, this frugality means being unwilling to engage in activities that do not align with one's values. They will invest 100 million in equipment but will fiercely reprimand employees for not justifying a 500 yen transportation expense. Employees often do not understand the reprimand. This is a common occurrence. While the company’s finances are tightly controlled, many leave their household finances to their wives. Additionally, many business owners cite their family and employees as their most important assets. Finally, the more a business owner is growing, the more straightforward they tend to be. They have a good understanding of their position. Business owners are often lonely. However, "loneliness" is different from "the naked king." In a company, there are almost no people who will offer opinions to the owner. The way a business owner behaves to gather information is by never saying, "I have heard that, seen that, or know that." They understand that saying this will prevent information from gathering. Because they have the ability to listen openly to others' explanations, information naturally accumulates.

[Column] 5. Small businesses are organizations full of "not enoughs."

I would like to introduce a column article.

An organization is a group of individuals who share the same mindset, aiming to share goals, devise strategies for implementation, and act according to individual roles based on rules and standards. Most organizations are cohesive because they consist of people with similar values. However, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are an exception. SMEs can be likened to a "human zoo." Although people happen to work in the same workplace, their values may differ too much, their goals may be scattered, and they may be unsure of the direction they should take. It is a collection of various individuals, resembling a human zoo. SMEs are characterized by a lack of people, resources, money, and management—essentially a state of having nothing. Furthermore, they operate under a system where one person takes on two or three roles, which prevents a deep exploration of the functions that the organization possesses, leading to daily struggles. The structural balance of the organization is disrupted, making it difficult to accomplish even the most basic tasks. Although they are trying hard, the way they are trying is different, resulting in a situation where outcomes do not meet expectations. The foundation of SMEs is thus fragile. Due to this weak foundation, SMEs operate while chronically dealing with some form of ailment.

[Column] ➅ The Golden Age of Management

I would like to introduce a column article.

Koike believes that the golden age for business leaders is a 15-year period from ages 55 to 70. During this time, they can fully utilize their knowledge, judgment, and action power in the seven key areas required of business leaders (dreams, people, products, customers, profits, funding, and health) after gaining various experiences. Business leaders in their 30s, 40s, and 50s should aim to create companies that match their own capabilities, while those in their 60s should enjoy their golden age as leaders. Furthermore, business leaders in their 70s and beyond should truly conclude their entrepreneurial lives in a commendable manner.

[Column] Management Plan Involving All Employees ➀ The Essence of the Management Plan

I would like to introduce a column article.

■What is a Management Plan? A management plan is an essential tool for a company to systematically and strategically promote management in order to achieve its objectives and desired outcomes. There are two key perspectives to consider in the management foundation. One is the management elements, which include people, materials, money, and management. The other is the management functions, which encompass the functions of the management department, sales department, manufacturing department, and general affairs and accounting department. The management plan outlines how to direct these management elements and functions over the course of the year. ■Positioning of Policies in Management The positioning of policies in management ranks fourth in the following principles that guide an organization towards a common direction: 〇Management Philosophy 〇Mid-term Vision 〇Structural Formation Strategy 〇Policy 〇Product Strategy 〇Tactics 〇Combat However, it serves as the pivot between: 〇The future (from philosophy to structural formation strategy) 〇This year (from product strategy to combat). In other words, without policies, there is no function to connect the future with the current fiscal year, leading to confusion for the company and its employees. Therefore, it is of utmost importance in management operations.

[Column] Principles for Unifying Organizational Groups ➇

I would like to introduce a column article.

Combat is making sure that predetermined tasks are carried out as decided. As a practical measure for performance improvement, specific tasks for one month are determined as fixed decisions. Accordingly, everyone performs their roles based on this division of labor, and executing the decisions as planned is a crucial function of combat. Combat is about practical ability. To achieve goals, it involves creating mechanisms that compel daily work to be done and implementing methods to ensure tasks are completed. Ensuring that predetermined content is executed as decided is what combat entails, along with the practical implementation of daily operations and specific measures based on role division. It is the effort of all employees, including team leaders, to put this into practice. Companies with good performance have a high awareness of adhering to decisions. Because of this high awareness, they do not need to expend effort enforcing compliance. As a result, they can focus on other matters, making it easier to improve performance. Organizations are driven by people. To make it easier for people to drive the organization, it is essential to standardize what needs to be done. Without establishing patterns for necessary tasks, habits cannot be formed. A characteristic of teams without combat is that they may be called to action, but they do not respond. Ultimately, management is a contest of practical execution. Teams that cannot execute predetermined tasks as decided will not receive rewards for their performance.

[Column] Principles for Unifying Organizational Groups 7

I would like to introduce a column article.

Strategy is the method of mobilizing people and ensuring it is thoroughly understood and implemented. Strategy is a means to move people, and the key points are management and HOW TO. The essence of management is to ensure that what has been decided is carried out as planned. HOW TO refers to know-how and the standardization of work. Organizations are driven by people. To make it easier for people to drive the organization, it is essential to patternize what needs to be done. Without establishing patterns for what needs to be done, it becomes difficult to form habits. A representative management measure for patternizing what needs to be done is the management plan and performance review. Once the goals are set, we consider how to implement them and create a plan. At the stage of thoroughly communicating the specific route, steps, arrangements, and methods toward the goal, various issues arise, such as: - Not understanding how to do it well - Never having done it before, etc. Thorough communication includes properly teaching how to do things. The problem with operations in small and medium-sized enterprises is standardization. Simply put, it is about not creating a divide between those who can do things and those who cannot. Companies or departments that do not achieve results tend to create plans but fail to train, leading to a higher probability of failure when they face challenges unprepared. Taking this into account, we clarify roles and responsibilities in the 5W2H format: who does what, by when, and how.

[Column] Think of management as participation by all employees, not just the president alone.

I would like to introduce a column article.

Participation means thinking for oneself, making judgments, taking action, and accepting responsibility. It involves suffering, enjoyment, joy, and a sense of fulfillment from being needed. In small and medium-sized enterprises, there are basic hierarchical levels such as owners, executives, senior staff, mid-level employees, and general employees. Although each has different roles, the effort of all employees towards the same goal remains unchanged. A common issue in small and medium-sized enterprises is that "the management's policies do not permeate thoroughly." This phenomenon occurs because there is no employee participation mindset. Recently, more companies have been creating management plans, but there are commonalities in the methods of companies where policies are not permeated or thoroughly implemented. In such cases, the owner creates the management policy, sets numerical goals, and then holds a presentation. While this approach is good for the owner in terms of summarizing policies and numbers, problems arise in the point of concretization. This is because the owner creates it alone, leading to the absence of the "functions of product strategies, tactics, and operations that embody the policy" within the company.

[Column] Why Can't Executives Manage?

I would like to introduce a column article.

It's not that they lack ability; they simply haven't experienced it before. The management style of small and medium-sized enterprises is that of a playing manager, who manages while doing the work on-site. To use a soccer analogy, it's like someone who thinks about strategies such as player substitutions while kicking the ball on the field, but in reality, there are no playing managers in the world of soccer. Employees of small and medium-sized enterprises become managers once they are capable of doing the on-site work. They do not select someone who seems capable of management from the start. Moreover, there is no management curriculum in Japan's compulsory education. Consequently, if students serve as captains in club activities during their school years, they learn methods through experience, but only a very small number of people get to experience this. In other words, many department heads are thrown into management without prior experience when they are told to take on the role. In large companies, employees receive various training as they are promoted to higher positions to prepare for their roles. If we think of it in terms of a driver's license, they obtain a provisional license and then challenge themselves with management, but small and medium-sized enterprises do not have that luxury and experience management for the first time in a real situation, so it is only natural that things do not go well.

[Column] Why is the speed of personal growth slower than the speed of company growth?

I would like to introduce a column article.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have no leeway, and they must take action on human resource development in a state of urgency as they grow and distortions arise within the company. The growth of SMEs is proportional to the speed of growth of their management, but it is not proportional to the speed of growth of their employees. The conventional development pattern involves assigning department heads and, if they fail, providing education, but one must realize that it is already too late at that point. When aiming for company sizes of 500 million to 1 billion, 1 billion to 3 billion, 3 billion to 5 billion, and 5 billion to 10 billion, it is necessary to change the gears of organizational management. In terms of scaling a business, if we look at it from a human perspective, elementary school students have food and clothing that match their lifestyle habits and physique, while middle school students have food and clothing that suit theirs. No matter how similar the food is, elementary school students do not need the same quantity as growing middle school students. Similarly, companies must implement measures appropriate to their scale; otherwise, they cannot operate healthily, and cracks will begin to appear everywhere. At this stage, where a significant change in steering methods is required for various reasons, gaps within the company frequently occur.

[Column] A market with a scale of 3 billion is a battleground where small and medium-sized enterprises can win.

I would like to introduce a column article.

No matter how wonderful a product you create, it means nothing if you don't win. While many small and medium-sized enterprises develop excellent technologies and products, if they misjudge the arena in which they compete, they will only have their know-how stolen and be pushed aside, no matter how good their technology or products are. If you don't identify a winning arena, your approach to fighting will be flawed. A large creature like a whale can swim in the Pacific Ocean, but if a water strider ventures into the Pacific, it will be immediately swallowed by the waves. It is better to act confidently in a small puddle. Even in a muddy puddle, if there is no one else inside, you can win. This is the way to fight, and the principle is to win in an arena where you can win. From the perspective of market size, considering niche areas and gaps, the current market size for niche areas is changing to 3 billion yen. A certain major corporate group has established a criterion for new business development that any venture that does not reach an annual sales of 3 billion yen within three years will be withdrawn. Conversely, this means that they will not enter markets with annual sales of less than 3 billion yen. Incidentally, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, known for product development, is developing products that can win in a 1 billion yen market.

[Column] Unique Technology for Creating Weapons to Fight

I will introduce a column article.

Companies that have been established for over 10 years invariably possess unique technologies. It is because of these technologies that they have been able to operate for a decade. The perspectives on these unique technologies include: - Technologies for producing goods - Technologies for creating services - Specific technologies in individual fields - Core technologies There are two approaches to competition: "fighting to overcome weaknesses, which is a battle to bring negatives to a zero base," and "fighting to enhance strengths, which is a battle that can build upon positives." Fundamentally, it is easier to achieve results by focusing on strengthening one's advantages. The key point in this approach to competition is unique technology. - Unique technologies that are not found or cannot be replicated anywhere else - Unique technologies that exist in other companies but are outstanding or superior Identifying these unique technologies is one method of strategic development. Because unique technologies enable services that differ from competitors, the greater the number of unique technologies, the better the conditions for winning in competition.

[Column] Development of the Mid-term Plan (2) Planning for Failure Prevention Measures

I would like to introduce a column article.

Management has its good times and bad times. When executing a medium-term plan, one should also anticipate situations where things do not go well. Often, if one only considers when to pull back after a bad situation arises, they miss the timing. First, I would like you to establish criteria for "under what circumstances to withdraw, to stop, or to scale back." Humans have a peculiar tendency to wishfully think that if just a little more goes well or if we can develop that customer, things will change for the better. However, while clinging to that desire, management can lose its balance. It is important to set criteria for halting execution from the beginning. - Initial signs of failure - Methods to mitigate failure - Ways to withdraw from failure Additionally, from a different perspective, it is necessary to consider the "side effects that may arise and the anticipated losses" when deploying that strategy. Humans are creatures of habit. When trying to do something new, there is often a lot of "no" thinking. The key is how to dispel that. In this case, it is important to examine the inhibiting factors and consider means of overcoming them.

[Column] Growth Trajectory of Small and Medium Enterprises 4: Growth Trajectory from the Stability Period

I would like to introduce a column article.

When entering a stable period, companies can be divided into three patterns. The next phase after the stable period is marked by the threshold of 1 billion in general scale. There is a clear difference between companies that surpass 1 billion and those that do not. These differences can be categorized into the following three patterns. ■ Stagnation and Decline Period When a company reaches a stable period and the president fails to propose the next growth strategy, the company quickly falls into a rut. A rut is defined as doing the same thing for three years. This leads to a decline in performance. The stable period does not mean that performance remains consistently stable; it simply indicates that a foundation has been somewhat established. The operating level at which small and medium-sized enterprises break even is typically around 95 to 98%. If the gross profit margin drops by 3% or 4%, the company can quickly fall into the red. It is important to understand that companies that cannot propose further growth strategies will soon enter a stagnation and decline period. ■ Mild Growth Period The mild growth period refers to a situation where a company is experiencing slight growth due to favorable product selection, customer selection, and industry selection. While dealing with excellent products and good customers, if no actions are taken, there may be slight growth along the current trajectory, but the company will not be able to break through the 1 billion barrier.

[Column] Growth Trajectory of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises 5: Expansion Growth Phase

I would like to introduce a column article.

■Expansion Growth Period The expansion growth period refers to a company that has broken through the billion-dollar barrier and aims for three billion. It actively promotes multifaceted development centered around the power of its management. This multifaceted development involves the expansion of branches, stores, and areas. Therefore, it is inevitable that gross sales will increase. However, when growing from one billion to three billion, the internal structure of the company often does not keep pace. Inevitably, a tendency for "expansion" precedes the growth period. In cases aiming for three billion, the company lacks the pieces of a shogi game, such as gold, silver, rook, and bishop, resulting in a "king and pawn management style." If the king stumbles, everyone stumbles, creating instability; however, on the other hand, there is also momentum as a company. If the current president feels, "My company is at eight billion, and I want to somehow break through ten billion," then as a manager, they must challenge themselves in their role as a leader.

[Column] Growth Trajectory of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises 7: From Expansion Growth Phase to Growth Expansion Phase

I would like to introduce a column article.

■Expansion Growth Period This period experiences growth through multifaceted development and the introduction of multifunctionality (implementation of multiple business divisions and headquarters system), becoming a 5 billion company. However, while it appears to be a medium-sized enterprise externally, the content of each multifaceted and multifunctional aspect remains that of a small to medium-sized enterprise, resulting in a phenomenon of significant gaps. The company expands through the establishment of sales offices. However, when examining the content of those sales offices, they are essentially small to medium-sized enterprises. In a small to medium-sized enterprise that operates from a single location, the president is present, allowing for quick responses to issues and easy communication of company policies. In contrast, the sales office is led by a sales office manager. Therefore, the internal structure of the sales office is actually weaker than that of a small to medium-sized enterprise. In other words, "the gross is a medium-sized enterprise, but the internal structure of each aspect is often weaker than that of small to medium-sized enterprises." This leads to various gaps frequently occurring. To surpass the 5 billion mark during this expansion growth period, it is essential to implement multifunctionality, namely the headquarters and business division systems; otherwise, operations will not run smoothly. Additionally, a characteristic of this scale is the clash between the "old" and "new" in various aspects. Through this clash, if the necessary elements for the company are not integrated, it will become difficult to manage from a human resources perspective.

[Column] Activities and Management for Controlling a Team

I would like to introduce a column article.

The team's performance is designed not to improve. Understanding this fact begins to reveal the meaning of achieving results through leadership and management. Small and medium-sized enterprises have a structure where profits do not materialize unless they do something beyond the monthly routine work, and without considering measures for performance gaps, achieving goals is impossible. Creating performance requires both activity and management as two wheels. Activity refers to sales and production activities aimed at securing sales and profits. In contrast, management involves the task of checking whether things are deviating from the ideal state. Interestingly, if activities are neglected, sales, gross profit margins, profits, productivity, and funds naturally decrease. On the other hand, if management is neglected, expenses, accounts receivable, and inventory naturally increase. In other words, if a group is not controlled, activities will be carried out according to individual judgment, and management is often neglected because it is seen as troublesome. Therefore, performance is structured in such a way that it does not improve unless the functions of controlled activities and management by people or teams are incorporated. *For more detailed content of the column, you can view it through the related link.

[Column] Key Points on Balance Sheet for Selecting Fiscal Month

I would like to introduce a column article.

The income statement is based on annual figures, while the balance sheet represents the flow of funds at a specific point in time. Therefore, when selecting the fiscal month, the weight given to the balance sheet is higher than that of the income statement. What must be particularly considered is the balance between total current assets and total current liabilities, with the ideal situation being when total current assets exceed total current liabilities. However, the composition of total current assets is also questioned. The worst scenario is when 2. inventory reaches its highest amount throughout the year, while the best scenario is when 5. cash and cash equivalents are at their highest when preparing the financial statements. Since the balance sheet reflects the flow of funds at a specific point in time within the 12 months of the year, it should represent the optimal financial flow for the company. *For detailed content of the column, please refer to the related links.

[Column] The Density of Interaction Between the President and Employees is a Factor in Company Growth

I will introduce a column article.

Through 30 years of management consulting activities, I have discovered several absolute laws necessary for company management, one of which is that companies where the president spends a lot of one-on-one time with employees will definitely grow. One-on-one interaction with employees means personal interviews, discussions about sales and field trends, and educational sessions from the president. Recently, I had the opportunity to attend a management plan presentation for a certain company. When they first started the management plan presentations 16 years ago, they had 60 employees, and now they have grown to 250. This time, the presentation was held at the same venue as 16 years ago, returning to the origin after 16 years. Back then, the president was the sole star, with a management style akin to a king and a pawn. In this presentation, there were multiple stars (executives) who confidently presented, showcasing their growth and the expanded team. Thanks to the efforts of the president, executives, and employees, the company has grown significantly. The president of this company also values interaction with employees, creating time for it, and holds study sessions for employees regardless of weekends. *For more details on the column, you can view it through the related link.

[Column] Conveying the Spirit of Entrepreneurship 1 The Spirit of Entrepreneurship is Always Right

I would like to introduce a column article.

In the founding period of a company, there are no customers, partners, facilities, goodwill, or employees as we know them today. In other words, starting from a situation of "nothingness"—lacking people, goods, money, achievements, and trust—is a commonality in the founding stages of businesses throughout history and across cultures. The only thing that one can hold onto during this time is the "effort rhythm" of wanting to please customers somehow and working diligently with a single-minded focus. This transforms into enthusiasm and sincerity, allowing the company to overcome various challenges and grow into its current form. Moreover, companies that inherit the baton from their predecessors cherish and carry forward the family rules, business teachings, and lessons passed down through generations. Such founding spirit remains valid over time; when a company forgets this spirit, it tends to lose its direction, leading to various management issues. The struggles and stories from the founding period are often unknown to current employees, making it crucial to understand the origins that shaped the present state and content of the company. Knowing this history helps in understanding the values and perspectives of the management, which in turn leads to a unification of values as corporate individuals and professionals. *For more details on the column, please refer to the related links. For further inquiries, feel free to contact us.*

Human Resource Management Equation: The Role of Allowances

An explanation of various allowances that are inseparable when considering monthly wages!

Monthly wages can be broadly divided into base salary and various allowances. The base salary is determined mainly based on factors related to the "quality of work," such as role responsibilities and individual capabilities, and is positioned as the core fixed pay corresponding to the prescribed working hours. In contrast, various allowances address variable wage issues and concerns specific to certain employees, serving an important function in complementing the base salary. Specifically, they reflect four elements in wages that the base salary cannot fully cover: "amount, type, and location of work," and "living conditions." *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links. Feel free to contact us for further inquiries.*

[Column] ➂ The President of a Small to Medium-Sized Enterprise Betting on Their Way of Life

I would like to introduce a column article.

A certain company president, although young, desperately endured shame and tackled challenges head-on to avoid bankruptcy. He was short of 10 million yen needed for settlement funds. He sought help from government-affiliated financial institutions, but due to the lending restrictions at that time, they completely ignored him. As thoughts of bankruptcy loomed for tomorrow, he suddenly came up with the idea of contacting a local representative with whom he had no prior acquaintance. He quickly reached out, met with the secretary, conveyed his dire situation and the current lending restrictions, and managed to gain understanding, thus escaping the crisis. Another company president underwent civil rehabilitation. Once under civil rehabilitation, borrowing from financial institutions becomes impossible. He was forced into a very tough management method that required him to operate solely with cash. The president not only threw away his shame and reputation but also completely changed his personality. He became a demon who would take on any job and seize even the smallest connections for work. Six years later, he received a call from this president, who, with tears in his eyes, joyfully shared that the court had recognized the conclusion of the civil rehabilitation process. I want them to feel proud of running a self-sufficient business, no matter how small, and to participate in it (thinking for themselves, taking action, and accepting responsibility). I strongly hope they will convey the greatness of their company to their employees and families.

[Column] ➃-➀ The Background of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise Presidents as a Race

I would like to introduce a column article.

Can't you even do something like this? Don't you understand something like that? How many times must small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) owners have felt like they were biting on a bitter bug? It takes time to bridge the gap between 'tactile sense' and 'common sense' in both mind and heart. The tactile sense refers to events in the field, while common sense is the value system created by the environment in which one was raised. This difference troubles business owners. Many company presidents would say that their inherent personality is suited for a No. 2 position. However, whether they became founders out of passion, were forced into the role of a manager due to circumstances, or are second-generation successors who must take over, the fact remains that they are currently business owners. Small and medium-sized enterprises are often disorganized entities lacking in people, goods, money, and management. However, because they work to bring together such organizations, SME presidents become a 'common breed.' If you manage SMEs with the above characteristics for 20 or 30 years, you inevitably become a common type of SME manager.

[Column] ➇-➀ The Illness of Small and Medium Enterprises: Delegation of Work

I would like to introduce a column article.

Small and medium-sized business owners cannot delegate work to their employees. Organizational management is about using people to improve performance. In other words, it is about effectively mobilizing subordinates to achieve results. However, for a president who has managed each department alone until now, there is significant resistance and concern about completely entrusting departments and tasks to others. Yet, if one wishes to grow the company in a healthy way, it is necessary to change the way the company is steered. It is essential to shift to an organizational management style that delegates authority. However, I want to clarify that I am not saying that delegating is always the correct approach. For a president who feels they must do everything themselves, that is acceptable as long as they are not aiming to grow the company. This is also one way for a company to exist.

[Column] ➇-⓶ Illness of Small Businesses: Inability to Perform Basic Operations

I would like to introduce a column article.

Another problem often seen in many companies is that they are not performing the "basic actions." When you wake up in the morning, you should greet others with "Good morning," and when things are messy, you should clean up. These are the obvious basic actions that an organizational member must do. If you cannot perform these basic actions naturally, like breathing in and out, you cannot be a part of the organization. Particularly lacking are the actions of reporting, communicating, consulting, and giving instructions and orders. The inability to give instructions and orders is serious; failing to perform these basic actions that move people can lead to chaos in the workplace. Additionally, they are also failing to adhere to established rules. Not following them has become a habit in itself. If there is no habit of properly doing what has been decided, then any attempt to do something new is futile.

[Column] ➇-➂ Principles for Unifying Organizational Groups

I would like to introduce a column article.

The mid-term vision plays a role in breathing life into the company's future. Breathing life into the company's future means instilling dreams within the company, where the president, executives, and management create a vision, communicate it to employees, and execute it together as a whole. It is important to clarify how we want to shape our company or store. In response to changes in the external environment and the realities of internal resources three, five, or ten years from now: - What kind of company do we want to create? - What kind of business do we want to pursue? - What functions do we want to have? As a result, we will build what the scale-related factors such as sales and number of employees will look like. A vision is a dream and a will; it is something that is created. It reflects how the company wants to be based on the entrepreneur's corporate view and management philosophy. - For the president, what kind of company does he want to create? - For the employees, what kind of company do they want to work for? Indeed, since it spans a long term, the aspirations become stronger. However, those aspirations are based on the entrepreneur's corporate view and management philosophy, as well as the employees' work and life perspectives. They are not mere wishes; that is why they hold significance.

[Column] Principles for Unifying Organizational Groups ④

I would like to introduce a column article.

The structural formation strategy is to discover the optimal location for one's own company. The optimal location refers to the scale and method that are easiest to operate and most likely to generate profit. It is time to reconsider the conventional norms that have been taken for granted in order for the company to continue to thrive. If we do not review the unconscious habits related to our management, discover the optimal location, and build a strategy for structural formation, we will end up losing the competition against other companies due to differences in management techniques. For example, in an era where management is becoming increasingly about reduction, blindly aiming for sales expansion could lead to a loss of the company's value. It is essential to take a fresh look at management practices with an "all-no" approach. Humans are creatures of habit, and we can become unable to recognize issues in actions we perform unconsciously. This management structure formation strategy consists of five components: - Human and organizational strategy - Material strategy - Management technology strategy - Financial strategy - Risk response strategy The structural formation strategy is about exploring the optimal location for our company, the scale and method of management that is easiest to operate. It involves finding the optimal location that aligns with: - The personality of the manager - The company's characteristics - The specific industry To achieve this, it is crucial to reassess management practices with an all-no perspective.
