Akama: Embracing the growing pains in a workplace that never stops moving.

Q1: Why did you join the company?

I find the opportunity to take on challenges without being confined to a specific role very appealing. At TAIMATSU, new projects and tasks are constantly emerging—for the company, for my department, and for me personally. I never feel stuck in a rut, and I truly enjoy being able to tackle new work every single day.

Q2: Current job responsibilities and any gaps from expectations

There aren't really any gaps, though the pace is quite fast. You have to keep swimming like a sunfish just to keep up. That said, decisions are made much faster here than at my previous company, and the way we quickly move from one step to the next makes the work very easy to manage.

Q3: My personal value

Never dismissing anyone's ideas. I believe that creating an environment where opinions are respected and everyone feels free to speak up leads to a more energized and cohesive team.

Q4: Future goals

I think it comes down to passion. I’m not the type to wear my emotions on my sleeve, but I want to build a team where that passion is more visible from the outside.
