Today we invited William, an American who is fluent in Japanese, as our guest to talk about exploitative Japanese companies in the United States.

Many people in Japan think that it is right to work on any one business and keep doing that work for as long as possible. It is true that it is very difficult to continue doing one thing. A number of factors can make it difficult to continue. It may be that there is value in overcoming that difficulty and continuing a business for a long time. However, in some cases, it is important to make the decision to give up on one job, give up and try something else.

There is an old saying that goes better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond. This proverb does not apply to job hunting in Japan. If you can get into a large company, you should join a large company. There is no need to go all the way to small and medium-sized companies.

There are many jobs in the world and countless companies. And although there is freedom of choice, not everyone is doing the job they want to do. Even if you get the job you want, there are times when you have to do work you don't want to do or that you are not interested in. At such times, it is good to complain and work as you have no choice, but one way is to change your mindset and try to do work that you are not interested in.

Many Japanese salarymen still think that work is the most important thing in life. I don't think this way of thinking is wrong. It is natural that ideas and values differ from person to person. However, in Japan, there are many serious and hard-working workers and there is strong peer pressure within organisations, so there are very few cases where diverse values are recognised. In such Japanese organisations, if an individual tries to live a way of life that emphasises work-life balance, he or she is likely to encounter various difficulties.

The saying that the status quo is the beginning of decline is particularly favoured by managers. Although this phrase well expresses the essence of business management, a close observation of companies in the world reveals that some companies can be managed successfully enough by maintaining the status quo. However, it is necessary for businessmen to understand that maintaining the status quo is the beginning of decline, especially in front of management.

In the past, in an industrial society, a businessman's ability to summarise something was something that was valued by others. However, with the development of artificial intelligence, the ability to simply summarise is no longer enough to show people around you how smart you are as a businessman.

If you are a company employee, there will be many moments when you want to leave the company. The reasons for wanting to quit the company may vary, but even if you persevere and continue working in the company, the stress can have a negative impact on your body. Therefore, it may be better to change jobs and change the environment. In this case, you should be careful to change jobs while you are still employed and leave your current company only after you have received a job offer from the next company.

Ideally, as a salesperson, you should try using the products you are selling yourself. Doing so deepens your understanding of the product. It also makes you more persuasive when talking about the product in front of customers and convincing them. However, this is a kind of idealism and in some cases you may need to change your approach to studying the product.

In Japanese companies, cooperation is valued above all else. People who can keep their own individuality in check and adapt to those around them are regarded as good people. Of course, in the society in which you live, it is not a bad thing to change yourself to meet the demands of society. However, it is often the case that people lose sight of themselves in the process of over-adapting to the company.

Reading is considered essential for business people. Even if they do not read, they need to study through some medium, e.g. by listening to videos or audio. In this episode, we talk about study methods, with the main focus on reading notes.

Being able to pronounce a sentence in a foreign language accurately and having a correct understanding of the grammar does not by itself guarantee that the meaning of the sentence is fully understood. To truly understand a foreign language text, background knowledge and miscellaneous knowledge is necessary.

The purpose of studying a foreign language may vary from person to person. One of these purposes is to make money or do business. I don't completely reject the idea of studying a foreign language to make money. However, I believe that once you have mastered a foreign language to a certain extent, you can find value in striving to achieve a higher level. This is not limited to foreign languages, but I believe that studying something motivated by pure intellectual curiosity will enrich a person's life even more.

Salaried employees who are connected to their company bosses on social networking sites are unlikely to be able to communicate their true feelings on social networking sites. For example, they may not be able to say on social networking sites that they don't want to work, that they are unmotivated or that they want to skip work. In order to survive as a salaried worker, it is necessary to be positive in what you say.

Konosuke Matsushita once said that the stake that sticks out too far will not be driven in. The meaning of this saying is very noble. However, to survive in a Japanese company, it is very dangerous to take this saying seriously. In Japanese society, the stake that sticks out too far is still driven in. If you join a Japanese company, you must first and foremost be co-operative and avoid being disliked by those around you.

If you say you want to stop working as a salaried worker and start your own business, there may be people who deny your dream. Those are the so-called dream killers. If you decide to quit your job and become independent, you need to consciously distance yourself from these dream killers.

When you work in a factory, the company often provides you with a uniform. Even after you leave the company, you may keep the uniform you used to work in. For some people, the uniform may become a source of pride. However, it is also true that after leaving a company you have to leave the past behind and start a new life.
