business activities.<\/h4>\n<p>When companies reflect on the previous period, the word &quot;coronavirus&quot; will likely come to mind for almost all of them.<br \/>The impact of COVID-19 has affected businesses, industries, and countries\u2014literally the entire world\u2014and has dealt a devastating blow not only to health but also to the economy.<br \/>Our company was no exception; as a provider of IT implementation subsidy support, we have been supporting our clients&#039; business activities.<br \/>Amidst the challenging economic climate, many of our customers saw these national policies as an opportunity and were working hard to build a foundation for new challenges and further growth.<\/p>\n<h4>Trying to get hired<\/h4>\n<p>During the COVID-19 pandemic, it was predicted that there would be difficulties in finding employment, job losses, and job changes.<br \/>We saw this as a great opportunity for recruitment, and appointed an executive to be in charge of recruitment, placing unprecedented emphasis on hiring both new graduates and experienced professionals.<br \/>As a result, we were able to achieve our initial recruitment targets.<br \/>When new colleagues join the team, senior staff members need to reflect on their own work, take stock of their processes, and communicate what they&#039;ve learned.<br \/>Through such training and delegation, we also saw the growth of our senior staff members over the past year.<\/p>\n<h4>The lockdown continues in the Philippines.<\/h4>\n<p>In the Philippines, where our subsidiary LH&amp;creatives Inc. is located, we implemented a lockdown last March, ahead of the rest of the world.<br \/>However, the COVID-19 situation is only getting worse, and the economy is also suffering, making things very difficult.<br \/>And now, a year later, we are once again in a state of lockdown.<br \/>Over the past year, remote work, known as WFH (Work For Home), has been encouraged, and we have been somewhat forced to transition to a remote management system.<br \/>In addition to the coronavirus, this past year has been a year of being tossed around by the challenges of the Philippines.<br \/>However, being forced to work remotely allowed me to gain many insights.<br \/>Nobody knows what will happen with COVID-19, or how the Philippines will react.<br \/>However, if we consider WFH to be irreversible, we can see the need to refine our remote recruitment, training, and management processes, and we have come to believe that refining these will become a major strength for our group.<\/p>\n<h2>Attitudes that our customers have taught us<\/h2>\n<h3>Viewing COVID-19 as an opportunity<\/h3>\n<h4>A customer&#039;s words<\/h4>\n<p>We received a consultation request from a client in the food and beverage industry regarding entering a new business.<br \/>They are using their own resources to venture into new businesses, but they wouldn&#039;t need to do that if it weren&#039;t for COVID-19.<br \/>Because, if they packaged successful food and beverage brands (stores) and opened them up, sales and profits should have increased to a certain extent according to plan.<br \/>However, the food and beverage industry was treated as the culprit behind the spread of COVID-19, and coupled with shortened business hours and self-imposed restrictions, all plans were forcibly reset.<\/p>\n<p>The customer said this:<\/p>\n<p><em>&quot;I would never have even considered this if it weren&#039;t for this situation.&quot;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>And then he continued...<\/p>\n<p><em>&quot;If this challenge is successful, it will create another strong pillar in addition to our existing business.&quot;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&quot;And the food and beverage industry will definitely make a comeback, so we can grow more than ever before!&quot;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This pandemic has brought a lot of hardship, making it difficult to look forward, but I was inspired by the sight of people like them, determined to face the future and take that first step towards a new challenge.<\/p>\n<h4>I am deeply moved by the vision once again.<\/h4>\n<p>And I was able to feel a renewed sense of pride in our work, which allows us to help our customers achieve their visions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>MAKE A WORLD BETTER<br \/>We will continue to contribute to making the world a better place through our customers&#039; business activities.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I felt that our vision, as described above, clearly outlined our role.<br \/>With this vision and philosophy of &quot;creating smiles&quot; as our guiding principle, in our 18th term we will strive to fulfill our brand promise of &quot;strongly supporting our customers in achieving their visions&quot; more than ever before.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u682a\u5f0f\u4f1a\u793e\u30e9\u30a4\u30aa\u30f3\u30cf\u30fc\u30c8\u7b2c18\u671f 2004\u5e74\u306b\u6709\u9650\u4f1a\u793e\u30e9\u30a4\u30aa\u30f3\u30cf\u30fc\u30c8\u3068\u3057\u3066\u5275\u696d\u3057\u305f\u5f0a\u793e\u3082\u3001\u7b2c18\u671f\u3092\u8fce\u3048\u308b\u3053\u3068\u304c\u3067\u304d\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002\u3053\u308c\u3082\u3072\u3068\u3048\u306b\u304a\u5ba2\u69d8\u3001\u30d1\u30fc\u30c8\u30ca\u30fc\u306e\u7686\u69d8\u306e\u304a\u304b\u3052\u3067\u3059\u3002\u3042\u308a\u304c\u3068\u3046\u3054\u3056\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3002 \u5f0a\u793e\u3067\u306f\u3001\u6bce\u5e744\u6708\u521d\u65ec [&hellip;]","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[30],"class_list":["post-358","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-other","tag-management-by-philosophy"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=358"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=358"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=358"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lionheart.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=358"}],"curies":[{"name":"WordPress","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
