This time, it was Mr. I, who has been with
ISOWA for 50 years and is from the same graduating class as me, and Mr. T, who
has been with us for 40 years.
They are strong figures who have experience
in various departments, domestic and international business trips, and work
locations.
After I handed them letters of gratitude, they
made speeches.
Mr. I,
“I felt inferior to others, so I found
seniors I admired and learned from. Shohei Otani said, 'Let's stop longing,' but
I think we should long for something.”
Mr. T, who lived in Seattle, U.S.A.
“40 years have passed in a blink of an eye,
but looking back, I've met so many people.”
It seemed Mr. I. didn't get enough time to speak,
so I made him a special offer for his 50 years of service: “Please talk as much
as you want. I will make a video of it to publish company-wide.”
It was such a captivating speech.
The other speaker was Mr. S, who has been
with us for 3 years.
However, this is not an award for 3 years
of service.
He will be transferred to ISOWA America
next week.
He said,
“I have fewer years in my career than any
of my seniors who have been stationed at ISOWA America in the past. If I have
any questions, I will call or e-mail you guys from America, so please be kind
and support me. Especially Mr. O.”
Let’s show him our support, everyone!
And finally, from me to all of you,
ISOWA-Bito.
There is no ISOWA-Bito who is not part of “Contribution
to Kikai (“machine” and “opportunity”) Loss Reduction for NEXT Customers.”
Thinking about how you are connected and what you can contribute is what it
means to “live ISOWA.”
I am counting on you!
