Congratulations on joining the company today. Under our new management structure, I am truly delighted to welcome all of you, who have gathered from across Japan and overseas.

■ Message from Kiichiro Shibusawa, Director, Vice President and Executive Officer

Congratulations on joining the company.

It is important to think about your future careers. At the same time, I believe there are capabilities that can be developed only by fully immersing yourselves in the work right in front of you and taking it seriously. I believe it is the accumulation of such experiences that builds the resilience needed to adapt to change and confront difficulties. By immersing yourselves in your work and facing it earnestly, you will refine the human qualities and soft skills that AI cannot replace. At first glance, this may seem inefficient, but I believe the inner resilience needed to adapt to change can be cultivated only through experience.

Some of you may feel uneasy about your assignment or work location, but that also means your potential is about to expand significantly. Make full use of this company and your senior colleagues, and broaden your possibilities. Beyond the work you devote yourselves to wholeheartedly lies Mynavi’s future.

 

■ Message from Masayuki Kosaku, Director and Senior Executive Officer

Congratulations on joining the company today. Today, you have taken your first step as working professionals.

In this era of rapid change, that role is becoming more important than ever. Your fresh perspectives and flexible thinking will be a driving force in shaping the company’s future. Do not be afraid of failure. Take on challenges, and when you need help, rely on those around you. I sincerely hope that the path you begin today as working professionals will enrich your lives and become something truly meaningful.

Our Purpose—To create a world that envisions the future by engaging individual potential— is directed toward all of our stakeholders, and that includes all of you as new employees. With the strength and potential that each of you brings, let us create Mynavi’s future together.
