[Column] Why is there a difference between companies even when they start at the same time in the same region?

I would like to introduce a column article.

It is the difference in the quality of basic employee behavior. Starting the same type of business in the same region at the same time means that the selection of products, regions, and the timing of the start are the same. Yet, differences in performance arise in company management. I have had several cases where I assisted Company A and Company B, which started in the same industry and region at the same time (though at different times). The characteristics I felt at that time between growing companies and those that cannot grow are that employees of growing companies have developed the habit of taking notes without being prompted. However, employees of companies that cannot grow seem to have an unusually good memory and lack the habit of taking notes. Additionally, there is a difference in awareness regarding decisions made within the company. Employees of growing companies have a sense of obligation to adhere to what must be followed, while employees of companies that cannot grow have a low awareness of the established decisions and do not strive to adhere to them. It is not a question of whether the chicken or the egg came first, but if asked whether they have been able to grow because they have grown or have grown because they are capable, the answer would be that they have grown because they are capable. This difference likely stems from the time, wisdom, and tenacity that the management has devoted to raising the foundational level of the human collective within the company.
