[Autonomous]“Waiting for instructions” is already old. Eiji Kawashima was surprised by the Japan national team’s “overwhelming independence” #self-development #soccer

“The Japanese national team, who used to just carry out the coach’s instructions, has changed dramatically.” Eiji Kawashima, who has been watching the team’s changes from the last place on the Japanese national team for many years, talks about the biggest “evolution” of the Japanese national team in recent years. This was due to the overwhelming independence of the players. In the harsh environment overseas, the players have had the irritating experience of not being recognized if they don’t express their opinions. Rather than just waiting for the coach’s instructions, they analyze their opponents and vigorously exchange opinions on the pitch and after practice until they are satisfied. This is exactly the same in work and business. Unless we change from a “passive (top-down)” organization that simply waits for instructions from superiors to an “autonomous organization” where each individual thinks and expresses his or her own opinions, we will not be able to survive in the coming era. 👇[Please let us know in the comments section! ]What are you currently proactively sending out (suggesting) in your work or team instead of “waiting for instructions”?
