平塚剛史の誕生会

平塚剛史の誕生会

平塚タケちゃん32歳の誕生会をした。

KOMAに来て4年目になる。

嘘や悪口、言い訳や責任転嫁などのみっともない類いの事を一切せず、責任感も意地も根性もあって、建築士免許なども持っていてモノづくりに対するスキルも知識も情熱もある。
社会人としての経験も豊富で変に甘えてくる事もなく無駄な愚痴も言わないが、きちんと意見は言う。

そのくせ、どこか掴みどころの無い自由人であり、ほど良くドジでもある。

まあ何れにせよ、いつもニコニコ穏やかな男らしさがあって、出会えて良かったと思える最も信頼が持てる仲間の一人だ。



彼が入社した当時はまだまだ厳しい仕事環境で、受け身の仕事が多く常に納期に追われていて、休みは月に4日程度で少なくとも1日15時間は働いていた。

疲弊した若い衆が次々に辞めてしまったタイミングでもあり、新しいチャレンジどころか優先すべきは「立て直し」という状況で、自分自身もイライラしていることが多かったように思う。

それが少しずつ改善されて、今では1日8時間で月に10日の休み。
みんなでクリエイションに時間を使えるようになった。

それぞれの良いところが活かせて、作りたい物やヤリたい事そのものが仕事になる体質に少しずつ変わってきている。


平塚タケちゃんはキツい時期を共に乗り越えてくれて、今の環境づくりの立役者の一人でもある。


「失敗は成功の素」なんて昔からよく聞くけど、本当にその通りで失敗も無しに楽して上手くいくほど世の中アマくないってことは独立して15年で嫌というほど学んだが、まあ逆に考えれば、小さな失敗をなるべく沢山スピーディーに積み上げれば、そのまま小さな成功の積み上げになる。

そして、その小さな失敗に掛けられる時間と労力とお金のサイズが大きくなっていく事そのものが成長だ。


そうすると失敗することも楽しみの一つになってくる。


なんて楽観的に考えられるのも信頼出来る仲間のお陰である。


今後は、彼の知識や探究心を活かして新しい商品開発を一緒にやっていきたい。
たくさん失敗しながら共に成長していけたらと思っている。


We had the 32 years old birthday party of Takeshi Hiratsuka.

We have spent 4 years since he joined KOMA.

 

He has never made fool of himself including lying, speaking ill of others, blaming onto others, has strong sense of responsibility, guts, strong will, skills / knowledge / passion for manufacturing with the license of architecture.

He has plenty of working experiences without spoiling himself or unnecessary complains, however, is able to make his opinions.

 

At the same time, he is free-spirited person difficult to figure out, while properly clumsy.

 

Anyway, he is smiling and generous manly man, and one of the most reliable members whom I am so glad to have met.

 

When he joined, KOMA had still struggled with hard working environment with many passive tasks always tied up with delivery dates. Employees had worked 15 hours per day and 4 days offs per month.

At that time, we had experienced series of resignations of young employees, I would be irritated with the situation where we had to prioritize "turning-around" rather than new challenges.

 

The working environment has been gradually improved, we work 8 hours a day and there are 10 days-off a month.

We are able to spend time on creating something.

 

We have changed our company culture to make what, each employee would like to make or achieve taking advantage of his and/or her good points and originality, are in line with what the company is supposed to do. 

Hatsuka Take-chan is one of key members who have overcome the tough situation with us and made the prevailing working environments.

 

We frequently hear Japanese verb "Every failure is a stepping stone that leads to success", which seems to be true and I have learned that the life is not that easy as I gain anything without pains since I had become independent 15 years ago, conversely, piling up small failures in the short period of time would be equal to piling up of small successes.

 

And, the growth would be defined as the increases in the length of time and the amount of expenses consumed for small failures.

 

Then, we may enjoy failures themselves.

 

This kind of optimistic way of thinking would be brought by credible members.

 

I would like to cooperatively develop products with him taking advantage of his knowledge and his sprit of inquiry.

I would like to grow with him making many failures.
