Communicate to get and give feedback! Don't hesitate to share your ideas with others!

Hello. I am Tenmei Watanabe from Seito Medical School. This time, I will be rewriting the medical school, and the theme is "Let's get feedback."

　Hmm. Feedback. It's a tricky issue. If you have a boss, feedback will come naturally. Your materials aren't good enough. Your sales are dropping, and I wonder why. From compliments to harsh reviews, there are many opportunities to receive feedback when you're in a company.

　For example, let's say you are in charge of developing new products or creating new projects, and you come up with a great idea. Or even worse, let's say you are in sales or human resources, and you come up with a great business model. You want to make 100% of your business profits by spreading the idea widely.　

　What's important here is to get feedback. Suppose you present your idea to your boss in order to get feedback from them. Your boss then presents your idea to your boss's boss as if it were their own. "I, your boss, came up with that idea." Would you get angry at that time? Or would you accept it as a given?

　Even if your boss steals your ideas, I think it's okay if it's just one or two ideas. Your job also includes helping your boss win, and if your boss gets promoted because of your idea, then you've done your job perfectly.

　Rather, you should keep coming up with 10 or 100 ideas so that your boss cannot privatize your ideas as theirs alone.

　This will improve your skills, and your boss will not be able to hide the fact that he has stolen your ideas. If you are an office worker, you can get a higher position by improving your performance with one or two ideas. I think we need to keep thinking desperately to come up with more ideas, rather than sticking to one idea.

　If you keep one great idea to yourself, even if you could potentially mass-produce many more great ideas, your thinking will stop before you get to that point.

　Think hard! If you keep thinking, you will find a breakthrough. Even if you have a better idea, even if your job is to come up with ideas, you probably don't think long and hard to reach that point.

　For example, imagine you are a mathematician trying to solve a difficult, unsolved problem. You will continue to think desperately to find an answer to this unsolved mathematical problem.

　However, no good ideas come to mind no matter how hard you think about it, and you can only think of superficial solutions. You even consider giving up. Will you continue to challenge the math problem in the darkness where you can't see the future?

　I know that many mathematicians have spent their entire lives trying to solve mathematical problems that never found an answer, and I even know that some mathematicians have drawn the jackpot by finding the answer to a problem that had remained unsolved for hundreds of years.

　Even one of these math problems takes a huge amount of time to solve, and many mathematicians have become reclusive after solving it or because they were unable to solve it. If your one great idea was a way to solve this unsolved math problem, would you be willing to take on a new math problem if someone else plagiarized that idea?

　Perhaps an unsolved math problem is an extreme example, but ideally, I think that even a problem that you have finally solved after devoting your life to it should be communicated to your boss in order to get feedback. I think that it is normal for scholars to submit their work to a journal as a paper, but even if it is accepted, if you stop there, there is no next step.

　Of course, if you can solve a famous unsolved problem, you're good to go for the rest of your life, but I think it's more effective to spend the rest of your academic career trying to achieve even greater things than you already have.

　I'm not a mathematician, so this story is irrelevant to me. As I wrote earlier, the mathematician's story is an extreme example. I think that the great ideas we come up with are far easier than the solutions to such unsolved problems.

　Many people may have noticed the business model behind something like a blog, where you buy a used domain cheaply, ask someone else to help you grow the domain, and then sell it for a price higher than the cost of the domain and labor.However, when you first came up with the idea, you probably tried to do it secretly without telling anyone.

　I recommend getting your idea evaluated by people who are better at business than you and getting feedback. That way, you might come up with a more advanced way of buying and selling domains, or even a more fundamentally new business idea.

　Of course, if you really want to try something out rather than getting feedback, the best feedback you can get is to try it out yourself first. If it works out well, you can get advice from people around you who know the business and can trust you, and it may turn out to be a new idea rather than trying to keep it to yourself.

　I always share my ideas with others. On top of that, I'm always thinking about more advanced ways to do things. It's very appealing to me to make the habit of coming up with new ideas and turn them into a profitable job.

　If you can add a unique element to how you sell domains, it will be something that no one can copy when you talk to others to get feedback, and it may even be a long-term source of funding.

　On the other hand, it is also important to give feedback. If you listen to the other person with empathy, you may hear a lot of secret stories that you want to keep secret. If you give feedback carefully at that time, it is not a dream to become an information platform where information is exchanged around you.

　So, if you add your own ideas to the ideas you hear from others and share them with others, the meeting will produce a meaningful time. Get feedback. If you are a beginner, feedback from your boss is especially important.

　By repeatedly correcting your behavior based on feedback, your skills will improve dramatically. On top of that, you will also be able to give feedback. Don't stick to one idea, but keep coming up with ideas and communicating them to those around you. By becoming the center of attention, you will become a valuable resource for those around you.

　Keep communicating to get feedback. Think hard. That may be where your value lies. That's all. See you later.
