The first step in this process is for \u201ctop leadership to personally formulate a vision.\u201d In this article, we present a summary of the panel session held at the National Knowledge-Based Manufacturing Conference 2026 titled \u201cTop Leadership\u2019s Commitment to \u2018Branding\u2019 Accelerates Growth: How to Achieve Employee Behavioral Change and Organizational Transformation\u201d (Session Partner: Envision Co., Ltd.). Top executives who have driven organizational transformation firsthand and experts who have led corporate branding initiatives for numerous companies as external partners\u2014we invite you to watch this in-depth discussion on \u201cBranding for a New Era\u201d from these two distinct perspectives.<\/p>\n<h3>A Major Misconception: Branding Is Not Just About \u201cCreating a Logo\u201d<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Kuraimoto<\/strong>\u3000In this session, I\u2019d like to discuss a topic that differs from the typical perception of branding. Rather than focusing on advertising and marketing\u2014such as creating a new logo, running short-term campaigns, or raising company awareness\u2014we\u2019ll proceed with our discussion based on the hypothesis that the key to properly understanding branding lies in the subtitle: \u201cHow to Achieve Behavioral Change Among Employees and Organizational Transformation.\u201d First, I\u2019d like to ask Mr. Kobashi\u2014who, as the fourth-generation leader of a family business founded in 1910, has spearheaded its transformation\u2014to introduce himself from the perspective of \u201cwhat he has changed and how.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>\u3000My name is Kobashi, and I work for KOBASHI HOLDINGS, a company based in Okayama that manufactures and develops agricultural machinery and provides manufacturing support services. I joined Kobashi Industries, the core company of the KOBASHI Group, in 2008. From the very beginning, I wanted to \u201crevitalize the group as the next-generation leader.\u201d At the same time, faced with structural challenges such as Japan\u2019s declining population and the aging farming population, I felt a strong sense of urgency that \u201cwe must do things differently than we have in the past.\u201d<br \/>\nI became president in 2016, at the age of 34. Three years later, there was a moment\u2014just as the title of this session suggests\u2014when I made a firm resolution. I adopted the phrase \u201cCultivating the Earth\u201d as our new management philosophy. This does not negate our previous management philosophy of \u201creplacing manual labor on farms with machinery.\u201d While we have been cultivating farmland up until now, from here on out, we will cultivate the entire Earth. In other words, it was a redefined version of what we had been doing all along.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2730 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-001.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-001.png 900w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-001-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-001-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-001-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-001-270x180.png 270w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-001-540x360.png 540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Mr. Shojiro Kobashi, President and Representative Director, KOBASHI HOLDINGS Co.<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Born in Okayama Prefecture in 1982.

I am truly honored to have this opportunity to discuss management and branding with two exceptional business leaders, Mr. Kobashi and Mr. Hiraoka. I look forward to our discussion today. In fact, the concept of branding is subject to various definitions and perspectives among scholars, experts, and business leaders\u2014there isn\u2019t necessarily a single, universally accepted understanding. How it is perceived varies depending on the external environment, competitive position, and industry, which is why differences in understanding and misunderstandings regarding branding are common. At Envision, we view \u201cmanagement = branding.\u201d In that sense, I felt that Mr. Kobashi\u2019s efforts\u2014uncovering the \u201cessence\u201d of his company from its history and redefining that value in line with the changing times\u2014were the very essence of branding.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2731 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-002.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-002.png 900w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-002-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-002-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-002-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-002-270x180.png 270w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-002-540x360.png 540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Isao Fujimaki, COO and CBO, Envision Inc.<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">After completing graduate school, he built his career as a planner at major domestic advertising agencies and other firms.

Let\u2019s discuss this in more detail later. Next, Mr. Hiraoka, please introduce yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000My name is Hiraoka. After serving as president of BIPROGY (formerly Nihon Unisys) for eight years starting in 2016, I currently serve as an advisor. Even before becoming president, when I was still a senior managing director, I had been thinking, \u201cI want to change this company.\u201d Nihon Unisys was a systems integrator by industry, and while it had achieved growth through the so-called \u201cperson-month\u201d business model\u2014charging a set amount per person-month\u2014I felt a sense of crisis that continuing with that model would lead to a dead end sooner or later.<br \/>\nTherefore, in order to break away from the \u201cperson-month\u201d business model and become a company capable of providing new value to our customers, we formulated a new corporate message, \u201cForesight in sight,\u201d and positioned it at the core of our mid-term management plan. Throughout this formulation process, I worked closely with Mr. Fujimaki, who was with Interbrand Japan at the time. Furthermore, to encourage our employees to look outward, we introduced the concept of the \u201cbusiness ecosystem.\u201d At the time, the term was still unfamiliar to the general public\u2014so much so that people would ask, \u201cDoes \u2018ecosystem\u2019 mean environmental business?\u201d\u2014but we wanted to use it as a catalyst to create a new model for our company that differed from the past. Later, in 2021, we proposed \u201cDigital Commons,\u201d a further expansion of the business ecosystem concept, and formulated our purpose: \u201cWe will unlock the potential of technology through foresight and insight to create a sustainable society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2732 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-003.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-003.png 900w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-003-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-003-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-003-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-003-270x180.png 270w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-003-540x360.png 540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Mr. Akiyoshi Hiraoka, Advisor, BIPROGY Corporation<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">He graduated from the Faculty of Science and Engineering at Waseda University in 1980.

He advocated for new concepts such as the \u201cbusiness ecosystem\u201d and \u201cdigital commons,\u201d and spearheaded a corporate brand renewal\u2014including the change of the company name from Nihon Unisys to BIPROGY.

Of course, changing the company name is a major event, but simply changing it doesn\u2019t mean anything. Our thinking was that we could only build on this success by thoroughly promoting internal branding in advance and making the change at a time when our employees truly understood and accepted it. In other words, I believe the essence of branding lies in what we\u2019ve been doing for over 10 years\u2014since my time as Senior Managing Director\u2014namely, proposing new concepts, restructuring the organization to align with them, and continuously implementing initiatives to gradually encourage behavioral change among our employees and business partners alike.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Related Article: \u201cThe Challenge of Corporate Branding: Weaving a Context That Connects the Past, Present, and Future to Drive Organizational Evolution\u201d<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/terasu.biprogy.com\/article\/feature-envision01\/\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">https:\/\/terasu.biprogy.com\/article\/feature-envision01\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Branding is a company-wide transformative initiative that redefines and embodies a company\u2019s \u201cidentity,\u201d and it is an investment in the future.<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Kuraimoto<\/strong>\u3000Building on the sustained efforts of our two top executives, we\u2019d now like to ask Mr. Fujimaki of Envision\u2014a branding expert\u2014to share his perspective on the question, \u201cWhat exactly is branding?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fujimaki<\/strong>\u3000I\u2019ll begin by acknowledging that there are various ways to view branding. Generally speaking, when people think of branding, they tend to imagine B2C, marketing-driven initiatives\u2014such as promoting products through TV commercials and campaigns. Of course, such approaches have value if they align with the intended goals. At Envision, however, we take a broader view. In Japan\u2014a mature society and a nation facing unique challenges\u2014we are committed to focusing on branding that contributes to social change and helps make the world a better place, even if only in small ways. More specifically, we collaborate with executives and leaders involved in B2B operations at the many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that underpin Japan\u2019s industrial base. While supporting them in their branding efforts from a management perspective, we also keep in mind the local communities to which they belong, as well as the global markets that lie beyond.<br \/>\nBased on this background and our vision, we define branding as \u201canticipating change, redefining our desired future state and aspirations, and transcending the boundaries of our business and organization to \u2018grow toward the next era.\u2019\u201d<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">apparently<\/span>We define it as \u201ccompany-wide transformation initiatives.\u201d From this perspective, I view the remarks made earlier by Mr. Kobashi and Mr. Hiraoka as a prime example of branding. It involves identifying the unique \u201cessence\u201d of the company\u2014the brand\u2014within its historical context and redefining its unique value and DNA in line with the changing times. Then, using that as a starting point, we embody it in the business activities and organizational structures of each department. It\u2019s not just about external communications like marketing and advertising; all departments\u2014including R&amp;D, production, manufacturing, marketing, HR, and intellectual property\u2014align their efforts with the goal of \u201credefining our unique raison d\u2019\u00eatre (= identity) and delivering value to society,\u201d and act in unison. We view this series of company-wide transformative initiatives as branding\u2014which is, in essence, management itself. Therefore, it is not a one-time expense, but rather an investment in the future.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2717 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-1024x595.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-1024x595.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-300x174.jpg 300w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-768x447.jpg 768w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-1536x893.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-270x157.jpg 270w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1-540x314.jpg 540w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s1.jpg 1926w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>\u3000So, does that mean branding is all about ensuring consistency across the entire organization? Take \u201ccompliance,\u201d for example\u2014it\u2019s about embedding a company\u2019s DNA and organizational culture so deeply that, as a result, employees\u2019 behavior naturally changes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fujimaki<\/strong>\u3000I think you\u2019re absolutely right. While legal compliance is, of course, a fundamental prerequisite, by exploring what role compliance should play for the KOBASHI Group\u2014which upholds the philosophy of \u201ccultivating the Earth\u201d\u2014we should be able to establish a \u201cKOBASHI-style approach to compliance.\u201d In this way, our approach to branding is based on the idea that \u201cevery department should keep our company\u2019s brand in mind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000That\u2019s a way of thinking that\u2019s directly linked to business management itself. At BIPROGY, our purpose is \u201cTo unlock the potential of technology through foresight and insight, and create a sustainable society.\u201d However, that purpose is meaningless unless it is properly linked to our actual business strategy. It is precisely this connection that drives behavioral change among employees and within the organization.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fujimaki<\/strong>\u3000Corporate branding is a management exploration of \u201cwho we are\u201d; it is viewed as the very process of creating value in future society while continuously evolving and adapting to change. Furthermore, it is crucial to ensure that new businesses, products, and services align with the company\u2019s strategic direction and branding philosophy, and that decisions are made based on a consistent sense of \u201cbrand identity.\u201d It is also essential to assess whether employees\u2019 thoughts and actions are aligned, whether they operate autonomously, and whether this mindset is firmly embedded within the organization\u2019s culture. In other words, activities first gain momentum from within the company and among employees, and then lead to external communications (which are primarily articulated and visualized through creative power). Unless this integration is achieved, these efforts will ultimately amount to nothing more than one-off initiatives.

For example, did you consult with anyone?<\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>\u3000No, I made the decision on my own without consulting anyone. When I became president in 2016, my father told me, \u201cFrom now on, I won\u2019t interfere in any way. Make all the decisions yourself,\u201d and I took over the company. At that moment, I felt strongly that, just as my father had grown the company and passed it on to me, I, too, wanted to grow it even further and pass it on to the next generation. However, as a matter of reality, the Japanese agricultural machinery market is steadily shrinking, and it will be difficult to grow the company in the future simply by \u201creplacing farmers\u2019 manual labor with machinery.\u201d If that\u2019s the case, we have no choice but to go global. I believed that the phrase \u201cCultivating the Earth,\u201d as our management philosophy for going global, would surely resonate with our employees.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kuraimoto<\/strong>\u3000So that\u2019s how certain you were, then.<\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>\u3000Yes. It was something I felt I could \u201cbet my entire life on.\u201d And I didn\u2019t just announce it the moment the idea popped into my head. I nurtured it within myself for three years, and since my resolve never wavered, I made the official announcement. However, in reality, it wasn\u2019t that simple. I did my best to convey my vision at a company-wide meeting, but the reaction from most employees was, \u201cI\u2019m not quite sure what you mean.\u201d On the other hand, when I talk about \u201cCultivating the Earth\u201d to people outside the company in settings like this panel session, it\u2019s very well received. To be honest, I\u2019ve been constantly wondering, \u201cWhich of these reactions is the real one?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000I understand that struggle all too well. Instilling a company\u2019s philosophy throughout an organization is truly a daunting task. When it comes to this, there\u2019s no choice but to keep communicating it persistently, using every trick in the book. Even when conveying the same message, try changing the way you say it or the visuals you use to explain it. However, if you\u2019re too persistent, people will get annoyed and think, \u201cHere we go again.\u201d So, the PR team got creative: they organized workshops for employees and posted graphic recordings of those sessions on our internal intranet. I think it was by continuing to visualize and present the message in this way that it gradually took root.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fujimaki<\/strong>\u3000In a sense, it\u2019s inevitable that a gap will arise between the perspectives of top management and those of employees. After all, different positions naturally lead to different viewpoints. Of course, it is necessary to accurately convey a sense of urgency regarding the future in light of changes in the external environment and other factors. However, when it comes to instilling our philosophy and aspirations throughout the company, what is crucial is not simply introducing a new philosophy, but rather carefully unraveling the context of the past\u2014that is, our history\u2014linking it to both existing and new businesses, and thereby transforming the organization. In other words, we must curate these elements so that the future we aim for is connected to the present and the past as interrelated concepts. I believe we need to foster employees\u2019 understanding by \u201credefining\u201d \u201cour new roles and purpose,\u201d just as Mr. Kobashi mentioned.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000That\u2019s certainly true. As another strategy to foster internal adoption, when we formulated the corporate message \u201cForesight in sight\u201d during my time at Nihon Unisys, we created a visual framework that positioned all existing businesses as means to realize \u201cForesight.\u201d We also reorganized the company at the same time. People are, by nature, creatures who resist change, so it\u2019s only natural to feel resistance to new initiatives. So, we decided to create an environment where \u201cchange is the norm.\u201d Instead of the usual once-a-year organizational restructuring, we implemented small, incremental changes multiple times a year. Employees told us it was \u201ctoo chaotic,\u201d but after two years, they got used to it. Looking back now, I realize we took a rather forceful approach, but I believe it was the right decision in the end.<\/p>\n<h3>\"Creating Experiences of Success\" and \"Linking Them to Performance Evaluations\" to Foster Employee Behavior That Embodies Our Philosophy and Aspirations<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Kuraimoto<\/strong>\u3000We\u2019re seeing more and more specific processes emerge for instilling our philosophy and aspirations. What do you think, Mr. Kobashi?<\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>\u3000We\u2019re currently exploring various approaches. In particular, we\u2019re focusing on establishing KOBASHI\u2019s Code of Conduct and ensuring all employees adhere to it strictly; at the core of this is \u201csincerity.\u201d We want KOBASHI employees to always act with sincerity\u2014not only on the manufacturing floor but in all other situations as well. For example, even when it comes to matters that are difficult to report to a supervisor, employees should convey the facts with sincerity\u2014they must not lie or exaggerate. Furthermore, when negotiating with external partners, I want them to approach the other party with respect and sincerity, rather than adopting an attitude of \u201ceven one yen cheaper.\u201d I understand that maintaining sincerity in every situation is KOBASHI\u2019s core competency\u2014one we\u2019ve built up over our 115-year history as a manufacturing company. It is precisely because sincerity lies at the foundation of everything we do that we are recognized worldwide, and this ultimately leads to the realization of our philosophy of \u201ccultivating the earth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fujimaki<\/strong>\u3000I believe what we\u2019ve just discussed is a crucial point in bringing our corporate philosophy and vision to life. First, can we establish behavioral guidelines that reflect our identity and ensure that all employees act in a way that aligns with those guidelines? Next, does that behavior lead to \u201cquick wins\u201d (small successes) that are recognized by customers? This creates a genuine sense that \u201cwe can believe in these new principles and aspirations.\u201d Finally, whether the principles take root depends on how well they are integrated with the \u201cperformance evaluation system.\u201d In other words, it depends on whether the results of taking action to bring the vision to life are appropriately reflected in individual evaluations. If this element is missing, employees will feel that \u201ceven if we do this, it won\u2019t make a difference,\u201d and the vision will ultimately fail to take root. However, balancing the need to deliver short-term results with the need to act based on a medium- to long-term perspective is by no means easy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2720\" src=\"http:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-1024x589.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-1024x589.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-768x442.jpg 768w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-1536x883.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-270x155.jpg 270w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4-540x311.jpg 540w, https:\/\/km.lne.st\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/81\/2026\/05\/envision-s4.jpg 1930w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000That\u2019s an important point. In reality, it\u2019s extremely difficult to link behavioral change to performance evaluations. This is because evaluations inevitably tend to focus on business results, but the timelines for \u201cthe results of behavioral change\u201d and \u201ccurrent business performance\u201d are different. If you try to improve your evaluation score alone, \u201cnot changing your behavior\u201d actually becomes the right answer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>That's certainly true.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000So I revised our HR system and added a new evaluation criterion for managers: \u201cAre they encouraging their subordinates to take on challenges?\u201d Regardless of whether they achieve results, the key is whether they are encouraging challenges and acknowledging them. This is because, in order to get employees to take on new challenges, we must not blame them for their failures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kuraimoto<\/strong>\u3000It really makes you shrink back when you're blamed for a mistake, doesn't it?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000Back then, I kept saying, \u201cThe key performance indicator (KPI) for success is the number of failures.\u201d I\u2019d say, \u201cI\u2019m the one who fails the most at Nihon Unisys. If you fail a lot, you\u2019ll become president\u201d (laughs). While making this phrase catch-on, I worked to instill an evaluation criterion that focused on whether people were taking on challenges.<\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>\u3000That's really great. It's incredibly cool. It's very helpful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fujimaki<\/strong>\u3000That\u2019s excellent insight and leadership. Another key factor will be how to engage the HR department based on our philosophy and vision.<\/p>\n<h3>The pride of top management is what transforms our current assets into opportunities for the future.<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Kuraimoto<\/strong>\u3000It's almost time to wrap things up. Please share a few closing remarks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>small bridge<\/strong>\u3000In 2019, we adopted the ambitious theme of \u201cCultivating the Earth,\u201d and I\u2019ve reaffirmed my commitment to continuing to pursue this goal with unwavering dedication. Perseverance is a form of sincerity, and I hope that by setting this example as a leader, I can inspire our employees to take on new challenges.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hiraoka<\/strong>\u3000As the head of an organization, anyone would likely be thinking, \u201cWe need to change,\u201d while keeping an eye on the trends of the times. This is especially true for someone like Mr. Kobashi, who leads a company with a long history. Making changes requires resolve, and while this can be quite challenging, if you can muster the courage to take that first step, you will surely find a way to set the organization in motion. I hope that my experiences can be of even the slightest help to all of you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fujimaki<\/strong>\u3000Every company surely possesses a vein of \u201cuniqueness\u201d that holds the potential to shape its future. As we observe social trends and global shifts, the question is: How can we transform our existing assets into opportunities for the future? I believe the pride and conviction of top management serve as the starting point for this. Beyond this transformation, I believe that\u2014centered on the small and medium-sized enterprises and startups gathered here today, and drawing on the collective knowledge of large corporations and financial institutions\u2014a broad network will expand (a \u201ccircle of resonance\u201d). This will give rise to new value and meaning, which will gradually act as a centrifugal force, spreading throughout society. I believe that this will energize Japan as a whole and lead to a bright future. I would be delighted if you could use the branding approaches discussed in this session as a starting point for that journey.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter
