Beatrust Is that sport the most popular among business people? A trend survey that looks back on 2023 with tags!

https://www.golf-ngk.or According to “.jp/news/2023/riyouzei/2023riyouzei.pdf”, although the number of golf courses itself is decreasing year by year, the total number of golf users has started to increase since 2021. This may be due to the fact that, among sports, it is relatively easy to avoid the “Three Cs” and has received renewed attention in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic as a sport that encourages communication with companions. The appeal of golf is once again attracting attention. Next, let’s talk about travel in second place. Domestic travel is likely to be greatly affected by the extension of the National Travel Support program, and overseas travel is likely to be greatly affected by the end of Japan’s entry restrictions and quarantine measures, which were changed in April of this year. The global trend of a weaker yen continues to be an unwelcoming situation for travelers from Japan, but with the end of border measures, there have been many reports about overseas travel, and it has become a keyword of high interest among business people.
・Managers are knowledgeable about alcohol, and people in charge are interested in cooking.
We also investigated rankings by job title (management, manager, and person in charge).
Looking at the top 10 by position
・Managers like “sake,” “skiing,” “wine,” and “getting up early.” ・Manager level is “Ski”
・For those in charge, “cooking” ranked high.
With ski season coming up, conversations with executives and managers may lead to more skiing. Also, when talking to management, try asking them about sake, wine, and morning activities, and when talking to people in charge, try bringing up the topic of cooking, and both of you are likely to discover new things.
・Four of the top 10 rankings are sports-related. Also, many
outdoor-related hobbies, including traveling and camping, were ranked. Sports are a great way to communicate.
It was also clear that interest in sports was high throughout the rankings. One of the characteristics of sports is that you can have fun not only by actually playing, but also by rooting for a specific team or player.
Regarding soccer and baseball, which ranked highly,
・World Baseball Classic (WBC) Champion
・Held the Women’s Soccer World Cup
・Keio Gijuku High School (Kanagawa) won the summer Koshien (National High School Baseball Championship Memorial Tournament)
・There were historical achievements and efforts by the Japanese team at world-class events, such as Shohei Otani winning the home run title in the Major Leagues. With the Paris Olympics coming up next year, it is thought that communication through sports will become even more popular.
– Commonalities between sports and business. Bringing out the abilities and individuality of each individual to the fullest creates a strong team.
Let’s dig a little deeper into the sports trends for 2023. Of course, the historic feat itself attracted attention, but also the question of why this historic feat was achieved. In particular, the WBC
championship and Keio High School’s summer Koshien championship drew attention to communication within the team.
Especially in WBC
– Players with extensive experience around the world, such as Yu Darvish and Shohei Ohtani, actively communicated with younger players and generously shared their experience and knowledge.
・Manager Hideki Kuriyama respected the will of his players and left pitching and batting strategies to the players’ initiative.

・Based on the idea of ​​”Enjoy Baseball,” we respect the autonomy of our players and encourage each player to play baseball independently. ・If you make them play according to instructions, they will no longer think independently. Thinking independently is a skill that will be useful even after entering society. The director’s words also attracted attention.
In this way, the productivity of teams and organizations can be maximized by having each person think and act on their own. This is a common point in business. Compared to when working according to instructions or orders, when working with a high sense of
self-efficacy, the latter can produce better performance (*1). Of course, in a business or organization, it is not possible to just do what you want to do, but if you are a leader, you are required to think about what your members want to do and what you can do to make them come true. I think the time has come.

summary
I was able to think about how communication in business should go beyond job titles from the ranking of tags. By including topics like those listed in the rankings in your self-introductions and casual conversations when you first meet someone, you can enhance
communication. Please use it to look back on this year or as a conversation starter at year-end parties.
