Two overseas exchanges

I’ll introduce you to two overseas exchanges we had recently.

The first is about Mr. N, who began working at ISOWA in the middle of October.

We started to hire new employees by recommendations of other ISOWA people.  For now, only service technicians.  

I interviewed one of the candidates, Mr. N. 

He has a degree in computer science from a university in the Philippines and came to Japan 9 years ago after graduation.

He had little chance to speak Japanese because his former place of work was almost all Filipinos, so I talked in English with him.

I said, “Did you hear anything about ISOWA from Mr. M, who recommended you to us?”

He answered, “I heard about work, only that ISOWA manufactures machines of corrugated paper, and I heard that ISOWA people are all good people.”

I think he understands that not only “What you do” is important but also “Whom you work with.”

America, Switzerland, Germany, Brazil, China, Korea, and the Philippines.

With the additional cross-cultural exchange, I am looking forward to seeing what new fusions will be created with us. 

The other overseas exchange we had was about Mr. Ron, the president of ISOWA AMERICA Inc.

I had talked with him online for the recent two years, but now, he has come to Japan after three years, and I had a face-to-face and long talk with him!

I realized a good point of a face-to-face talk once again because we could feel the passion of each other.

On the day of Mr. Ron’s return to America, Mr. O, Mr. A from Export Department, my wife, and I went to dinner with him. 

 

Ron, Mr. O, and Mr. A are all good fellows, and we had a fantastic dinner together, suitable for the restaurant’s name, “TGI Fridays!”

(We went to dinner on Thursday, though, ha-ha.)

Basting on our discussions in the meetings, let’s do what we all need to do in Japan and the U.S. to win bigger success in the US market!
