Sunday Paper

9月

2日

I recently looked at the Sunday edition of the Seattle Times and was surprised by two things: the price has increased to $4.00, and the size has significantly decreased. I remember when it was $1.99 and much thicker. This change reflects broader trends in the newspaper industry, where declining subscriptions and advertising revenue, along with the rise of digital media, have led to smaller print editions and higher costs. Newspapers are now facing the challenge of adapting to a digital-first world to remain relevant and sustainable. I kind of miss the old days.

"A" SPEC HOSTING ... Idea!!

9月

1日

I came across an apartment sign that read "ASPECT" today, and it sparked an idea for a new service name: "A" SPEC. This name symbolizes a top-rated hosting service, one that stands out for its exceptional quality and performance.

To create a top-rated hosting service like "A" SPEC, three key factors come into play:

1. Price: The cost of the hosting service is often a primary consideration for customers. A top-rated hosting service offers competitive pricing without compromising on quality. It should provide good value for money, ensuring that customers feel they are getting the best possible service for the price they pay.

2. Simple Features: Overcomplicating features can be a major turnoff for users. A top-rated hosting service focuses on simplicity, offering features that are easy to understand and use. This means providing just the right tools and functionalities that cater to the needs of most users without overwhelming them with unnecessary options.

3. Ease of Use: Usability is a crucial aspect of any hosting service. A top-rated service is intuitive, with a user-friendly interface that makes managing websites and domains effortless. From account setup to website management, every step should be straightforward, minimizing the learning curve and ensuring that even those with minimal technical expertise can use the service effectively.

By focusing on these three pillars—competitive pricing, simplicity in features, and ease of use—"A" SPEC could become synonymous with a top-tier hosting service, attracting a wide range of customers looking for reliability, affordability, and simplicity.

Japan Business Trip

8月

29日

I will be traveling to Japan a week from today on WestJet. This will be my first time flying with WestJet from Seattle to Calgary and then to Narita, Japan. Compared to other airlines, the price I got from WestJet for a full-flat business class seat was the best ever. For now, I am okay with being in a different class from Seattle to Calgary, and I may have to pay for checked baggage. However, it seems that the baggage fee is waived for the Calgary to Narita segment. I'll keep you posted.

来週からWestJetで日本へ行く予定です。WestJetでシアトルからカルガリー経由で成田へ飛ぶのは今回が初めてです。他の航空会社と比較して、WestJetのフルフラットビジネスクラスの料金はこれまでで一番お得でした。シアトルからカルガリーまでは異なるクラスになりますが、現時点ではそれで問題ありません。また、チェックイン荷物に料金がかかるかもしれませんが、カルガリーから成田までの区間では荷物料金が免除されるようです。状況についてはまたお知らせします。

Ken Uchikura Newsletter Vol. 300 HORENSO (Reporting, Communication, Consultation)

8月

29日

HORENSO (Reporting, Communication, Consultation)

HORENSO is a Japanese acronym for reporting (houkoku), communication (renraku), and Consultation (soudan) and is a crucial communication method in Japanese business culture. Properly practicing HORENSO allows you to convey the progress of work to your superiors and colleagues, as well as accurately communicate the status of projects to clients. This ensures that all parties involved are aware of the project's current status, which helps build trust.

HORENSO encompasses the following elements:

Reporting: Sharing current situations or progress with your superiors and stakeholders. This also includes regularly updating clients on project progress, results, and any issues. It helps clients understand the project’s status and proceed with confidence.
Communication: Conveying necessary information in a timely manner. By informing both your team and clients early about schedule changes or important details, you can prevent confusion and misunderstandings.
Consultation: Discussing problems or uncertainties as soon as they arise. This applies not only internally but also with clients. Early communication with clients allows you to identify solutions before issues escalate.

The Importance of HORENSO
When HORENSO is not effectively practiced, superiors, team members, and clients become unsure of what’s happening, leading to anxiety and mistrust. This can give the impression that progress is delayed or that no work is being done.

On the other hand, properly practicing HORENSO offers the following benefits:

Improved Transparency: The progress of projects and tasks becomes clear, allowing the entire team and all stakeholders, including clients, to share the same understanding.
Early Problem Detection: Regular reporting allows issues to be identified and addressed with clients before they grow larger.
Building Trust: Effective communication strengthens trust between superiors, colleagues, and clients.

Practical Application
To effectively implement HORENSO, consider the following points:

Regular Reporting: Utilize weekly meetings and progress reports to regularly update all involved parties on the status. This also includes providing regular progress updates to clients.
Timely Communication: Strive to communicate important information and changes promptly to all relevant internal stakeholders and clients.
Early Consultation: When you sense a problem or have concerns, consult with your team early, and if necessary, share the information with clients to find a solution together.

By consciously practicing HORENSO, you can not only improve operational efficiency and strengthen trust, but also ensure smooth communication with clients. Thoroughly implementing HORENSO with clients is directly linked to project success and increased customer satisfaction.
