Want to change the reality that 40% of people's 'hearts don't move at work'.

This press release is a dream of "Shake Inc." in support of April Dream, which aims to make April 1st a day for announcing dreams.

The reality where over 40% of people work with their "hearts not moving" Over 40% of working individuals report that their "hearts are not moving" in their daily work. This state refers to feeling nothing at all, not just positive emotions like "joy" or "excitement," but also negative emotions like "frustration" or "disappointment." In other words, it means that a significant number of people are simply "mechanically performing assigned tasks."

Are you drawing a "line" on your own potential? While working in an organization, "Work is just like this." "I just need to do this." "This is all I can manage." People draw lines on their own potential. As a result, work becomes something to "get through," and gradually, their hearts stop moving. However, work is not supposed to be like that. Amidst the frustration of things not going well and the regret of failure, "Discovering your strength in empathizing with others" "Feeling proud of being able to help someone" Through such experiences, your strengths, values, and sources of motivation should become clear.

The joy of encountering a "new self" through work Becoming able to understand others' feelings, or becoming a little kinder to people. Encountering a self that can persevere for colleagues even in difficult situations. And gradually, a "self that is not the old self" begins to emerge. A new self is discovered through work. People interact with each other, gaining a sense of accomplishment and growth. We believe that working in an organization inherently holds such value.

The ideal scene we witnessed We once witnessed that "ideal scene" in a small booth at an exhibition. Although the environment was far from ideal, there were members moving more vibrantly than anyone else. Regardless of whether they were from the leading department, young or veteran. Breaking through such barriers, each person found what they "could do now" on their own, enjoyed it, and resonated beyond their roles. At that moment, the atmosphere in the venue certainly changed. It was the moment when the passion emanating from "people," not the "place," breathed life into the venue.

Towards an organization like a "jazz session" without a conductor The organization we aim for is not like an orchestra following a single conductor. It is an organization like a "jazz session" where each person understands their role and strengths, playing a sound that only they can produce. Sometimes even enjoying dissonance, they create a unique harmony that only that team can produce. It's not a meeting where executives speak and young employees listen with downcast eyes, but one where everyone shines their eyes and expresses opinions like, "I want to do this!" We want to spread such a scene, where individual potentials resonate, to workplaces all over Japan.

Creating a future where everyone can be the "protagonist" of their own life To achieve this, we are working on: ・Leadership development ・Career self-reliance support ・Building shared leadership-style organizations We support each individual to exercise their unique leadership and live as the protagonist of their own life. Everyone has roots that drive them, such as "strengths," "feelings," "aspirations," and "WILL." And inherently, everyone should be able to work vibrantly with shining eyes. We want to unleash that potential. Realizing a society where all working people exercise leadership and work vibrantly. That is the dream of Shake Inc.
