Embracing Change to Promote
Reforms Enhancing Our Adaptability and Management Structure
I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to our shareholders and investors for their constant support of our business at Tokyo Individualized Educational Institute, Inc.
Tokyo Individualized Educational Institute embraces three educational ideals: the confidence that you can do it if you try, the joy of taking on a new challenge, and the importance of having dreams.Positioning these educational ideals and the principles of hospitality as the linchpins of our corporate activities, we are developing individualized education as our core business through which we strive to contribute to a happy future for humanity.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the prep school market has seen significant changes, both in terms of innovation in educational systems and the evolution of customer needs. Technological advancements centered on generative AI and increasing market engagement by competitors from other industries are clear indications that the market has entered a transitional period.
Amid such a dramatic shift in our market environment, Tokyo Individualized Education Institute will continue to value the principles we have cultivated since our founding. At the same time, we also recognize that the most important step we must take is to embrace change and proactively promote reforms.
The first reform we must pursue is the enhancement of our ability to adapt to changes in our market environment. To exist as a company that is chosen more than ever and that remains worthy of receiving trust of our customers, we must improve our existing program content and develop new programs for middle school, high school, and university entrance exams. One of our greatest strengths is our individualized learning support system. Elite university student instructors who have a passion for teaching walk step-by-step with each student, using training manuals while also incorporating their own learning experiences. Our system is well-received because it promotes a cycle of realistic goal recognition and increased student motivation. Moving forward, we will further improve educational text and study plans, and provide coaching on study methods. By combining the benefits of individualized instruction with support for proactive learning, we help each child and student achieve their goal. I recognize that achieving something new requires removing waste. In this sense, it will be important that we incorporate DX to achieve improvements in productivity.
The second reform we must achieve is enhancements to our management and execution structure. To aggressively promote reforms, it will prove essential that department supervisors embrace a business management mentality towards achieving management goals. Each department must clearly identify its issues and take on the challenge of making improvements. To enable speedy decision-making and proactive execution, we must strengthen both our management structure and our execution structure. To that end, we will build an unwavering organizational structure with clear roles and responsibilities.
I sincerely request the continuing guidance and encouragement of our shareholders and investors in our future endeavors.
