By ensuring the psychological safety of individuals, we succeeded in smoothing internal communication. In addition, by introducing the accounting method “Balloon Accounting” devised by director Megumi Matsumoto and continuing training on financial statement analysis, employees and management became one team, making it possible to recover the company’s business
performance, which had declined due to the coronavirus pandemic. Furthermore, by introducing the “Balloon Accounting Bonus System,” individual performance is fairly evaluated regardless of position, gender, etc., thereby improving employee motivation and work-life balance. Encouraged by this award, Matsumoto Kosan Co., Ltd. will continue to aim to create a new organization that values
​​individuality and promotes well-being regardless of gender.
