The motto is "Let's work happily."Business strategy for Corona's evil that President Epson Ogawa talks about

――The appointment of the president on April 1, 2020 was just as the new colon virus infection began to expand.I started with a difficult steering.

Ogawa (hereafter, title, title) On January 31, 2020, we have been preparing for the president's duties since the president's inauguration was held.Was expanded, there was no overseas business trip, and the customer was unable to greet the customers firmly, and on April 1st.

However, from a different perspective, you can take a positive time that you have time to think carefully about various things.

The change in the environment has also triggered many things.What I have done on a daily basis has been a waste, so I have to do something like that, devising, improving, so I have a level of work, consciousness, and power.Some have been able to pull up.

When launching the production of new products at overseas production bases, engineers will go directly and do the final stuffing, but it is difficult to go directly in the current situation.

For this reason, we use online conferences and telephone calls and cover them, but in that case, the factors that the production site must manage to do it will increase.As a result, what I am expecting is that the power of the production site will increase.

Looking back, I felt that the production base after the end of the SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) in 2003, the production base after the end was one step.The new colon virus is a difficult station for management, but there are also aspects of opportunities in strengthening your constitution.

Since I became the president, I wanted to find something wasteful and want to improve it, but it is the current situation that it is natural without saying.

-In the entrance ceremony in April, it was impressive that the word "guard, break, separation" was used.Why did you use this word?

Ogawa, "Mamoru / Breaking / Separation", may be important and perfect because it is the current era.Work starts with learning the basics and basics and protecting it firmly.

In the next step, there is no progress unless you try a better way, that is, to "break" the basics and the basics.It's no use doing what your seniors told me.

Finally, it is a stage of evolving and developing its own way, "separation" from seniors and bosses, that is, independence and independent.I think this is exactly the growth of people.

For that reason, I would like you to keep in mind the purpose of doubting common sense while always conscious of the purpose with a humble attitude.This does not simply doubt common sense, but always thinks what is the purpose and wants you to doubt common sense.

Right now, we are in a world without the correct answer.If we don't change our way of thinking, we can't proceed.What is important in such a world is why you are working for and what you are working for, that is, the purpose.

If your purpose and priority are clear, you will know how to proceed and how to proceed.I think growing in a difficult era is fun.

――Do you have your own experience?

Ogawa When he was young, he worked in the image sensor department.It was a job to supply image sensors to major electronics manufacturers, but this was not very interesting (laughs).There was no material to think for myself, and the business itself was ultimately no good.

The next move was the projector business.Here, I turned around and did it quite a bit (laughs).The projector is in the early days, the technology is groping, and there is no correct answer, so even if you fail, nothing is said (laughs).

Still, what we think is the standard of the industry.I had the experience of doing what I thought was right, regardless of the common sense.Rather than doing it exactly, you can think and grow yourself.I also learned the basics and basics of the work with an image sensor, based on it, destroyed, separated, and became independent.

Originally, since I was a student, I hated common sense (laughs).I want to break common sense.So, the president who should be the most common sense was the farthest, the most distant (laughs).

I myself do not want to protect the history and traditions I have built.I want to break it.Of course, I don't think it's destroying everything, but I'm so conscious.Rather, I think that attitude is required by Epson today.
