The longest Borad Meeting
It takes 2 and half hours for Q1 board meeting yesterday, this is the first time I do it by myself, with the help of S. I provide the outline and then polish slide and wording.We are not doing good in Q1, Core - current business facing the first negtive growth in 5 years, the launch of new business wasn't no scheudule, the overall performace didn't meet our expectation as well; I am not defending at the board meeting, but to honesty re-constructed the market and where we are, then provided with a " We can overcome " message to board meeting.
Yesterday was the last working day for COO in the office and it became the last board meeting he participated as well; in the morning, S. assemble senior staff and broadcasted the documentation of COO to him - it covered almost all the voices from our staff, that was an extrodinary efforts S. put and the CD Rom can be the most precious gift for him.
I bought a Monk Blanc ball pen as a soviernier for him, we have a Sharks' Fin lunch at Golden Top Restaruant - we both enjoy it so much, in the afternoon, when I am prepraring the board meeting doucment, COO visit the shops the last time officially.
The Farewell Dinner took place at New Hama - the Japanese Steak House, everybody were happy and I take the Group Photos - as yesterday, our Chairman S. Yamamoto resign from our board as well. the brand new board will then structure. new Chairman is very sneaky, after the board meething, he told me to keep COO's office as Chairman's office for him, he will visit us any time, during the dinner, he also mention to hold a second half kick-off session after re-budget. it seems he is very interested in running the show, well... I don't really care. I just do what I have to do.
Remember sister Blablaba said " Pick what you dislike first in working " and " Do what's right instead of what interest you first " I should not forget the defination of " Determination " in me.
Y. called and said we can have coffee anything, but not to arrange meals, that's too heavy for him, he is returning to the businee and we should reconnected also.
