Only one thing I regret。To the concept of "lottery adoption"

2016/8/8

 

Apple cultivation and company organization

 

18In the year of company management、There is one thing I regret very much。

 

At my will、I fired an employee。13It ’s a year ago.。

 

I didn't particularly want to reduce labor costs due to a business impasse。
The employee cheated something、It ’s not that I have a bad working attitude.。
Watching what you say and do、
Somehow it was an ambiguous reason, "Isn't it suitable for the corporate culture of this company?"。

 

at that time、When reading some book、
Thinking about dismissal、I happened to see a president somewhere talking、
Sadly、Influenced by that way of thinking、I decided to dismiss the employee.。
 

The book said something like this。
"Dismissal is like growing apples."。

 

For example、Suppose an apple tree has 10 fruits。
One of them is for some reason、
Small、I'm thin、If you decide that it is unlikely to be for sale、
To focus nutrition on the other 9、
I will tear off that one apple before harvesting and throw it away。

 

This is the same as the company organization。

 

Though ruthless、Sometimes the company wants to make a profit、
I have to make such a decision。
When I read it、"It's reasonable。
If I were a farmer, I would probably do the same、
This person is saying the right thing. "、I thought so。

 

The person who notified the dismissal、Immediately after that、It was one morning。
Seeing the employee crying and jumping out of the president's office、
The staff in the company also immediately understood what happened。

 

Shortly thereafter、Several of the dismissed employees came to the president's office。
"President! Why? I'm the type of employee I've never seen before、
I was on good terms with us、
You did your job without any problems! why!?」

 

I shut up。
of course、I couldn't talk about apple cultivation。

 

"sorry、Forgive me"
After all、Only that much words came out。
Still、"This is my decision。It's a tough decision to think about the future of the company. "
Strongly tell yourself、I left the company that day with a resolute attitude。

 

What on earth are you doing

 

I couldn't get it out of my head for a while。Was dragging。
Was what I did right?、Is there justice there?、I thought deeply again。

 

Also about apple cultivation、I thought about it again。
Small、I'm thin、Just because it's unlikely to be for sale、
Apples that are torn off and thrown away。
When I think about replacing this with people, companies, and society as a whole、
I found that my blood was fading。

 

I am、Maybe I was only looking at people who were convenient for the company。
I feel a little uncomfortable、Just because the values ​​are different、
Maybe he was thinking of eliminating it like an apple。

 

Thinking further、There are various people in society。
Some people are sick、Some people have disabilities、Some people are socially disadvantaged。
Tear off such a person and throw it away、Choose only those who are convenient for you、
Just enjoying themselves and trying to make a profit。
What on earth are you doing、When。

 

Small、I'm thin、If you have such a troubled apple、
Nine other energetic apples join forces、By nourishing and giving courage、
I think I can save it。

 

Don't just give up、
Friends who grew up under the same tree、I think we can all help each other。

 

A society where anyone can play an active role

 

I feel that this is important even if it is applied to society.。

 

Instead of abandoning those in need or weakness、
Actively help and save。
People who have no whereabouts、For those who cannot find a purpose of life、Proactively provide places and opportunities。
It is the company that can do that、
A collection of such companies、
I think it will lead to a society that supports and encourages each other.。

 

In that sense、The company hires people、To hire、
I think it creates a very heavy social responsibility。
Young people who felt excluded from society、
There are many cases of violent crimes caused by resentment and alienation.。
This may be、I wonder if the cause is not a little in the company、
I am even more keenly aware of the weight of responsibility for company management.。

 

I am through the company
"Anyone can play an active role、We aim to create a society where anyone can enjoy working.。
of course、First of all, from ourselves、
There are hiring methods that I would like to challenge in the near future。

 

"Lottery adoption"。

 

"From those who applied for recruitment、We will give a job offer to 〇〇 people by lottery. "
It's like that。
I think some people think it ’s not playful.。The one who is chosen is desperately doing it。

 

However、This is "recruitment that does not choose"。It is a recruitment that accepts anyone。

 

Unfortunately, it ’s still a matter of company size.、
Even if we can't accept everyone who applies、
By not choosing、Anyone can accept、
You can start building a strong company right away。

 

Anyone can play an active part、A company where anyone can enjoy working。
First of all, we want to realize it。
