Regarding the Response to the New Coronavirus and the Future of Business --- Future of Business --- No Need for Most Meetings
An increasing number of companies are adopting so-called online meetings as a response to the new coronavirus. Both cats and scoops use Internet conferencing services, just like an "online meeting bubble". But are meetings really necessary? Should we just change the meeting online without reassessing the necessity of the meeting itself?
The spread of the new coronavirus is forcing many companies to review their businesses. Precisely because we are in an emergency, we must make decisions quickly and act with a sense of urgency. What is required now is to rebuild your own business model so that business can proceed smoothly without gathering people in one place or having close contact. The traditional way of doing things is outdated.
Companies that are unaware of the changing times are trying to get by by simply switching their traditional meetings to online.
A truly innovative company will try to change the flow of business itself, such as whether meetings can be eliminated or whether decisions can be made in other ways than meetings.
Most corporate meetings are really unnecessary. The productivity of the company will never improve because you are lazing around meetings that don't have to be done.
Corporate innovation cannot be achieved by simply doing the same thing as other companies. It is not possible to be ahead of the times just by saying that online meetings are popular and that we should try them ourselves.
Now is the time to review your company's entire business model, reexamine its essence, and review what you should do and what you should not do. Does your company hold only the meetings it really needs?
