During a serious discussion
Acquired initiative and cooperation
Mr. S.Acquired initiative and cooperation

We jointly developed products with a Thai restaurant and the company that operates it, and sold them in the store and at the school festival. Through repeated discussions on ideas for products and sales methods, I was able to hone both my independence to take the initiative in voicing my own ideas and my cooperative skills to respect the opinions of others, and I felt that I was growing as a person.

Through industry-academia collaboration, such as a bridal plan proposal at a hotel in Numazu City, I experienced the industry research to the proposal. At the training camp, we prepared for the presentation and formed a circle with team members before going into the actual event, which was an unforgettable experience. In the future, I would like to be involved in work that moves people.
