This article is the entry for day 14 in the KINTO Technologies Advent Calendar 2024🎅🎄

Hi, I’m Nakanishi from the Manabi-No-Michi-No-Eki (Learning Roadside Station) team. This year, the Learning Roadside Station project was officially initiated and subsequently reorganized into a team. As part of our initiatives, we also run an in-house podcast, and for this year’s Advent Calendar, we’d like to share more about it.

What is the Manabi-No-Michi-No-Eki (Learning Roadside Station)?

The Manabi-No-Michi-No-Eki (Learning Roadside Station) project aims to enhance the accessibility and effectiveness of the frequently held in-house study sessions. The initiative is driven by dedicated volunteers within the company, aiming to support study sessions and promote a culture of knowledge-sharing throughout the organization.

Reading Session to understand the General Managers’ Meeting Minutes

The Learning Roadside Station Podcast showcases interviews with individuals who organize study groups at KTC. This segment is called "A Peek into the Study Session Next Door". This time, we will be speaking with Omori-san and Takagi-san, the hosts of the "Reading Session for General Manager’s Meeting Minutes."

Interview

Hoka-san: Could you start by introducing yourselves?

Omori-san: Yes, I’m Omori from Corporate IT. I usually handle PC kitting at the Muromachi 16th Floor Center. I am a member of the Asset Platform Team, responsible for managing work devices and SaaS account licenses. I am also in charge of preparing and collecting devices for new employees.

Takagi-san: Yes, I’m Takagi, also part of the Corporate IT team. I work in the Tech Service Team and commute between Jimbocho and Muromachi. As a member of the Service Desk, I manage internal inquiries and offer problem resolution. Specifically, I am responsible for managing Self-Service Management (GSM) and OPIT Management.

Hoka-san: Thank you. Could you share how the "Reading Session for General Managers’ Meeting Minutes" began?

Omori-san: It all began with Kinchan in Nagoya, who initially proposed the idea. In Corporate IT, we rarely have direct access to frontline business information. Therefore, we started this session to enhance productivity by sharing the General Managers’ Meeting minutes, discussing them, and learning from one another.

Takagi-san: I feel the same way too. By reviewing the meeting minutes, we can anticipate business trends and apply that insight to our work. For example, we can proactively prepare before official requests are made, enhancing work efficiency.

Hoka-san: What kind of impact has this session had so far?

Omori-san: Although it may not always directly relate to our daily tasks, reviewing the meeting minutes helps us understand the background of projects, allowing us to make better and more informed proposals. This improves the quality of operations.

Takagi-san: I completely agree. Reading the meeting minutes allows us to grasp business movements and respond more efficiently to unexpected requests. The insights gained from the meeting minutes are invaluable for making informed business decisions and proposals.

Hoka-san: What are your future plans for this session?

Takagi-san: I’d like this session to also serve as a platform for facilitators to challenge themselves and enhance their skills. We aim to encourage more new participants, creating a lively and engaging learning environment.

Omori-san: I completely agree. To deepen business understanding, I’d like to continue reading and discussing the meeting minutes, enabling all participants to apply this knowledge to their work. We also aim to gather and organize information, allowing people to catch up later if needed.

Hoka-san: Finally, is there any message you’d like to share with the listeners?

Omori-san: This session is open to everyone. If you’re interested, please feel free to join us! Let's enhance our business knowledge and elevate work quality together.

Takagi-san: We’re planning to create a Slack channel to share announcements. Participating in this session will help deepen your understanding of the business and enhance your work.

Hoka-san: Thank you both for your time today.

This time, we explored the details of the Reading Session for the General Managers' Meeting Minutes, including its operational background and future prospects. We hope you look forward to the next study session!
