Corporate Philosophy and Continuity

We received some correspondence for Ms.DORJGOTOV Bolor, after she returned home from a seminar. She is a candidate to be a Mongolia-Japan Center instructor.

I think it was great to have been able to take part in the latest seminar. I made discoveries and had experiences that could only have come from the seminar. Even though it ran for three weeks, I was able to appreciate and grasp the reasons and secrets by which Japan became a developed country in the world. I think it can be said that Japan is a realm of manufacturing. I was able to confirm this with my own eyes, after being given explanations from various perspectives, including ideas that lead to the creation of new products, the technologies behind them and human-resource development that raises the base for these things.

Issues mainly learned and realized in the seminar

At the outset, Japanese companies, whether big or small, all understood that they had to fully clarify their “company philosophy.” The participants learn that a company philosophy is not just a desire to figure out how the company should be, but “whom should it serve? What should it make? And should those things contribute to people, society and eventually the country?” All of the employees are made to clearly understand those things and then the appreciation becomes a base. Then the employees will find their own jobs worthwhile, feel they have a purpose in life and have a sense of pride. Employee motivation will be heightened as the attitude toward daily duties improves. In addition, by having pride, loyalty toward the company will be created.

The other major point is the word “continuation.” As for all the factors that influence a business’ existence — 5S, quality control, human-resource development, and so on — these involve more than just trying something once and then ending. They involve thinking up systems (often times small innovations) that will always carry on, based on the participation of all employees. Companies we visited also mastered a huge amount of power to move up a level, while continuing to uphold this idea and also to carry out constant training. For instance: corporate philosophy; displaying it in places where everyone can read it; starting work every morning after everyone says the philosophy aloud in a choruse active in Japan in a variety of fields during the seminar, so that it will be committed to memory to the extent they can quickly say it aloud. I am extremely grateful for being able to visit many companies that are active in Japan in a variety of fields during the seminar and to take valuable lectures by many teachers who diagnosed SMEs and provided guidance.
