■About the key visual for the kickoff event
The main copy for this event is “Anglers and I.”
This copy contains the message that colleagues who have a sense of ownership, responsibility, and initiative will understand their individuality, independence, and role and play an active role. The design features multiple people to reduce the sense of isolation associated with the word “I.”
We were conscious of creating a bright, positive, and event-like design that would create a sense of excitement and make people want to participate, and we kept the tone of the message and content in a way that didn’t make it too heavy.
Situation of the day
Day 1: Management policy and team building
The first day focused mainly on management policy. During COO Fujii’s time to look back on Anglers’ past, many members actively contributed their opinions, increasing the sense of unity in the venue.
After the session, the CXO team explained the company’s future management policy, and announced the positions the company should pursue in the future and its business plan.

Day 2: Strategy development and task design
The second day started with policy and KPI announcements from each department. At the workshop, we held a “Mandala Chart: Strategy Deployment Workshop” for the entire company and for each department, with the aim of giving everyone a sense of ownership of the goals and deepening their understanding of the strategy. While creating specific action plans, each department held discussions that translated into actions. The goals set here will continue to be pursued when setting personal KPIs and during 1on1 meetings.

As our company has members working all over the country and we often communicate remotely, we will continue to hold our own inauguration meeting offline once every six months. If you want to liven up the fishing industry or want to be involved in a 0 to 1 business as a stakeholder in our company, we are a company that allows you to communicate remotely with members outside your department while ensuring the quality of our work. I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you.
