The brain absorption companies:Consulting Firms make the world worse

The brain absorption companies:Consulting Firms make the world worse Background I saw the news that many highly educated persons in Japan try to join in consulting firms. Their purposes may be short term profits and early retirements. I knew their purposes because I had same purpose… Consulting Firms make the world better or worse? Consulting Firms doesn’t make new products nor new fields, they only try to win competitions. They make the world worse. Brain absorption companies Consulting Firms are the brain absorption companies which absorb the thinking of business managers. Consulting Firms try to take charge of CEOs’ thinking. So that Consulting Firms absorb client companies’ brains. Consulting Firms’ arm They admire business professors’ theory. They use it as arm to client companies. However, theory doesn’t allow just one counterexample. Business professors’ theory is not to be called theory, it is to be called as hypothesis or idea (or joke). So that consulti

Bottleneck persons in workspace

Bottleneck persons in workspace I heard about essential skills in office working, English language, Accounting, and Information Technology(IT). I know they are very important skills. I thought about bottleneck persons in workspace. They lack more than one skills of those. In Japan, English language is not still essential, but Japanese language is essential. Accounting skill is alternative to cost/profit literacy. How about IT skill? Bottleneck persons often lack IT skill. IT systems are mede for bottleneck persons’ IT skill, so that bottleneck person’ IT skill will be the BOTTLENECK for the productivity of the systems. I wonder why Japan companies have lower productivity than other countries. I think that the existence of bottleneck persons causes it. There may be some solutions for bottleneck persons. 1)Re-educate about their IT skills 2)Cut bottleneck person from workspace It seems to choose 2) in other countries. But Japan companies prefer to choose 2) or low

TPP can stop the WW3

TPP can stop the WW3 Background TPP(Trans-Pacific Partnership) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Pacific_Partnership TPP is the trade agreement around Pacific Rim. Background2 USA and China have the conflict between them. This conflict has possibility about WW3. Can USA vs China turn to be USA & China? I hope Yes. It will be solved by USA and China to join TPP at the same time. TPP has rules about the trade agreements. If USA rejoins the TPP, China will be denied to join the TPP. If China joins the TPP, USA will be denied to join the TPP. So that if USA and China join TPP at the same time, this problem will be solved. Then if USA want to leave TPP, USA can’t rejoin the TPP because of the presence of China. The reverse is also true. TPP can bring USA and China bigger trades. More abstracted TPP is one example. There are some rules about the group just like TPP. Both = USA and China (1)There are benefits for both countries by joining the group. (2)There

The ultimate insider trading

The ultimate insider trading I recalled Bank Of Japan(BOJ)’s actions in this year. BOJ bought JP¥ and sold US$ before BOJ cancelled minus interest rate. If CEOs of companies do same things, they will be arrested by public powers and rules. I think BOJ has to be punished by market. P.S. I deleted junk g-mail. If someone sent to me important mail, please resend it.

The bias

The bias Bias We see the world through our biased eyes. There are 4 things/persons for the bias. 1)Bias 2)Persons who have bias 3)Persons who create the bias 4)Tools for to make the bias The number of 1) and 2) are bigger than 3) and 4). Essential few Essential few things/persons are 3) and 4). If we can focus on 3) and 4), we will see the world differently than others do. Who/What is 3) and 4)? Platforms are 4), for example big media companies, big tech companies. The workers in them may be 3). What should we do? We cannot escape from our biases. To avoid the biases control, I recommend tactics “Pivot our communities”. Pivot communities Pivot is basketball technique. To join various communities is to pivot communities. Center of communities may be family, and pivot communities may be good.

To read Tsundoku(積読) books

To read Tsundoku(積読) books What is Tsundoku(積読)? Tsundoku from wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsundoku Background I have bought many books in macOS/iOS Book app. But there were so many Tsundoku books. These days, I started to read them. macOS/iOS Book app’s good points This app is great to look back books which I had read. I also used Kindle app, but it is not good about UI. Kindle doesn’t provide what books I have read and their history. If I read Tsundoku books, their history shows when I completed the books. macOS/iOS Book app’s bad points Cost, it’s the problem… Kindle has Prime unlimited, but Book app doesn’t. I hope e-books’ price will get cheaper, but it doesn’t now… In the future I hope I will read 1000 e-books and 1000 e-comics. Now I have read 300-400 e-books and 500 e-comics. The hope will take some years, but I want to complete.

U.S. Steel company

U.S. Steel company Background Nippon Steel bid for U.S. Steel faces Sept. 23 review deadline, sources say https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/nippon-steel-bid-us-steel-faces-sept-23-review-deadline-sources-say-2024-09-13/ I saw the news that Nippon Steel wanted to buy U.S. Steel. I felt something wrong about it. Something wrong Why could Nippon Steel bid for U.S. Steel? There are many steel companies in the world, and there are a lot of companies for the bid. The reason they didn’t bid for U.S. Steel is that there is clear risk, American minds. So they didn’t touch the risk. I saw another news in Yahoo Japan… (This news is written in Japanese language.) https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/f561c66891d402f7ec4297f9bd9c9d7ce23585ff The important point is Nippon Steel made decision as soon as possible. Furthermore, Nippon Steel aims to buy a local(USA) steel company because cheap steel products are rejected by US protectionist trade. Some points I thought some points a
