■Excerpt from a message from Takayuki Nakatani, President Group CEO

You already possess the qualities necessary to excel from your first year as a new graduate in this era of significant transformation known as the AI age. First, you have joined a company in the ever-growing consulting industry, which actively utilizes cutting-edge technologies, such as being one of the first companies in Japan to implement Gemini, a type of generative AI, company-wide (*). Many of the executives in our group are new graduates or those with a few years of experience, and we have a fertile ground where new graduates can play a leading role and thrive, with the potential for anyone to aim for the position of CEO.

What successful senior colleagues have in common are three conditions for success: "honesty," "a love of learning," and "positive thinking." It's important to cultivate this attitude in your daily work: immediately implement what you're told is good, and focus on finding ways to make things work rather than reasons why they can't. Furthermore, consistently performing sincere and thorough basic actions, such as taking the initiative to greet others and always keeping promises, is the first step towards becoming a business professional trusted by management and colleagues.

Our goal is to increase the number of " sustainable growth companies" in the world, thereby revitalizing Society . As a member of a comprehensive transformation consulting group that supports clients' transformations, we encourage you to embrace the present moment and the future with all your might, without being bound by your past self. Funai Soken Group provides Environment you can maximize your individual abilities and grow beyond your imagination. Believe in your own potential and let's forge a new era and the future together.
