I would like to introduce a column article.
■ The company is a human zoo, designed to collapse.
The characteristics of various organizations, such as sports and hobbies, are fundamentally similar in that they gather people with similar values. For example, if friends from a recreational baseball team discuss going camping, the conversation quickly comes together. However, a company organization is characterized by the gathering of people with differing values, backgrounds, ages, and genders. Therefore, unless there is an intention to unify the company organization, it will not function as a cohesive entity. In other words, if left unattended, the company is inevitably designed to collapse.
■ A company will not run smoothly if nothing is done.
People with different backgrounds and differing values regarding likes and dislikes happen to live in the same area and come together to form an organization under conditions where they can compromise on treatment. This is the case for many small and medium-sized enterprises. While a group of animals in a zoo lives based on natural coexistence, when humans become like a zoo, they forget their own productivity and complain about low evaluations, or say they don’t get along with someone, or that even when company policies are presented, they do as they please. Many companies are in a state of neglect. In other words, it is more effective to consider company management methods based on the premise that a company will not run smoothly if nothing is done.
