私たちが口にすることも多い、コミュニティはCommunusー共有を意味するラテン語を語源としています。日本に組織のカルチャーファーストという思いを共有できるコミュニティを立ち上げるに際し、支部の立ち上げリーダーを指名いただきました。まさに「共有の場所を作る」を作り、育て、日本の唯一無二の文化を最大限に世界にも共有する機会をいただけたと感じています。日本は「和」を重んじるといった、長い歴史と共に培った価値観が組織のあり方や組織文化にも色濃く反映されている側面もあります。私は、欧米と日本の文化の丁度中継点のような生き方・働き方をずっとしてきたからこそ、この日本の根幹にある価値観を、メンバーの皆さんと改めて感じ、共有し、組織のカルチャーファーストとは？ というのを、ざっくばらんに分かち合いながら、気軽に世界に発信していくコミュニティを目指したいと考えています。もちろん、私たちは日本にいながら、様々な背景を持った方々と日々仕事をしているのも事実です。そのような多様性と共に、日本支部は今後も多くの想いを重ねるメンバーと共に、カルチャーファーストのJapay Wayを、じわじわと世界にも「拡散」しながら、世界中のコミュニティから学びや刺激を受けあい、融合する、まさに、世界の「和と輪」に繋がるコミュニティとなるように、育てていきたいと考えています。The word “community,” as we often refer to it, is derived from the Latin word “communus,” meaning to share. In establishing a community in Japan that shares the organization's culture-first aspirations, I was appointed to be the founding leader of the chapter.I feel that I have been given the opportunity to create and nurture a “place for sharing” and to share Japan's unique culture with the world to the fullest extent.In Japan, values that have been cultivated over a long history, such as respect for “wa” (harmony), are strongly reflected in the way organizations are organized and in the organizational culture. Because I have lived and worked in Japan as if I were at the crossroads between Western and Japanese cultures for a long time, I felt and shared these fundamental Japanese values with the members again and discussed with them what is the culture first of the organization. We would like to create a community where we can casually share our thoughts and ideas about what culture first means to an organization. Of course, it is also true that we work with people from various backgrounds every day, even though we are in Japan. With such diversity, the Japan Chapter will continue to work with many like-minded members to slowly “spread” the culture-first Japay Way around the world, learning from and stimulating communities around the world, and fusing them into a community that is truly connected to the “harmony and circle” of the world. We would like to grow the Japay Way so that it becomes a community that leads to the “harmony and circle” of the world.
