Now, in this issue.Future Reality."I would like to talk about the following.

 

We cannot prepare for the future without knowing the future, and these are truly turbulent times. Preparation for the future depends on how we perceive the future.

 

This is something I have told you many times,Education is the cultivation of the universal and the zeitgeist.It is to do so.

 

We know a lot about the past and the present, but it is usually difficult to understand the future. Therefore, in this article, I would like to foresee the future by combining two articles.

 

One is the Toyo KeizaiJapanese salaries haven't risen in 20 years."This is the reality.

 

The average annual income of Japanese people is 4.41 million yen, which has not risen in nearly 20 years and ranks 19th among the 35 OECD member countries.

 

It is the third largest GDP country in the world in terms of salaries. Low productivity has been pointed out as the cause.

 

The reason why this is the case is that we spend more time on internal coordination than adding value to our customers. 、、、、、 For more information, please read the article,What I am trying to say is the difference between the West, where people work on their own value, and Japan, where people work as part of an organization.

 

As in the case of the consulting firm, the criteria for evaluating a person should be Facts and Results, which is how much his/her own skills and knowledge increase the value of the client (customer). Facts and results should be the criteria for evaluating a person, but this is not the case in Japan.

 

In other words, in the future, people will receive a Japanese-style "regular course" education, find a job at a company through mass employment, and then stop studying altogether.

 

This will not only keep their salaries up, but they will not be able to live in the AI age.

 

Japan does not demand individuality in both education and work. In the words of the article, high value-added Skill that is valued by the market.

 

In other words, students prepare to enter society by shifting their focus from "how many points can I get" to "what can I do," and learn to upgrade the qualities and abilities they have acquired throughout their lives.Such a shift in mindset is important.

 

The second article is about the most recent financial results, which show that companies with positive financial results are restructuring massively.

 

The fact we can learn here is that similar measures have been announced by banks, and it may be that human jobs are finally being taken away by AI and robots.

 

Another fact that should be noted in the article is that while the employment rate in Japan has remained high in the past, it is the number of non-regular workers that has increased significantly in recent decades, not the ratio of the number of regular workers.

 

After the collapse of the bubble economy, the number of non-regular workers exceeded one-third of all employed workers and became a major social problem. The same reality seems to be transparent in the AI restructuring.

 

The future that can be read through these articles can be found at 、、、、、、 no more explanation is needed.

 

Education reform is exactly what we are doing to solve this reality. How do you accept this reality?

 

We encourage you and your wife to discuss this.
