Participating in the Los Angeles
training was a turning point in my life

In August 2009, I attended
the Los Angeles training,
which was sponsored by the
Kansai Club. It is no
exaggeration to say that this
experience was a turning
point in my life. I was able
to discover new goals and a lifestyle that mark the center
of my life.
At the training, I proposed
a theme of how to fascinate
others. The United States
dominates as a world leader
because of its techniques of
promoting Japanese-American
companies in the United
States. They research
successful Japanese workers
and ways to fascinate
countries, companies, and
people. Besides receiving
hints on how to activate the
Kansai region, my goal was
to learn how to attract
people.
By embracing the beauty of
Grand Canyon and the wide
blue sky of Los Angeles, I
realized the efficiency of the
system and lifestyles in the
United States. One thing I
learned after exchanging with
people of experience was that
we shouldnft compare Japan
with the United States. After
acknowledging the good traits
and differences, we should
think of ways on how to
make a difference for not
only Japan but also
worldwide. I will be conscious
of my goals and original
intentions and try my best
day by day.
