The author is the former representative director and president of Japan LINE Co., Ltd. Ryo Morikawa (opens in a new tab), currently starting his own business and serving as C Channel Co., Ltd. (opens in a new tab) Representative Director and President. Although this is not a new book, it is worth reading and thinking over and over again, and I highly recommend it to everyone. Ryo Morikawa’s new book “10 Minutes to Complete Each Job: What makes you great is not effort, but method (opens in a new tab)” is also worth referencing!
Speaking of the origin of my acquaintance with Mr. Ryo Morikawa (opens in a new tab), we have to go back to a few years ago when I was still working in the media. At that time, I was the editor-in-chief of “Digital Times” (https://www.bnext.com.tw/ (opens in a new tab)) magazine. Due to my work, I had to constantly research fashionable technologies and services, including LINE, a rapidly rising mobile application.
I still remember that I contacted Mr. Ryo Morikawa through Facebook at that time and communicated through Facebook messages. After that, I often followed his Facebook updates. Not only did I learn about the current development of LINE, but I could also get a glimpse of his work philosophy and ideas from the information Mr. Ryo Morikawa reposted and shared or the mood notes he wrote.
Mr. Ryo Morikawa has served as LINE (formerly NHN) since 2007. Japan) Co., Ltd.’s practical experience and management philosophy gained by the representative director and president are all condensed in this book “Simple Thoughts (opens in a new tab)》(formerly known as “シンプルに考える (opens in a new tab)》). In the book, he reveals many innovative actions to promote LINE mobile services, and also shares many rules of thumb he has gained from workplace practice, such as: passion is the key to success, continuing to provide products that users really want, and companies should focus on creating value, etc.
Mr. Ryo Morikawa is an outstanding industrialist. He knows his job well and is not complacent with his current achievements. In March of this year, he resolutely chose to resign. Then in April, he invested in the video website C Channel (opens in a new tab) specially designed for women, and it is now running smoothly.
For me, “Simple Thinking (opens in a new tab)” is not only a book that imparts successful experience, but also an important reference book in the entrepreneurial process. Putting it on your desk can remind you at any time not to forget your original intention, to consider the needs of customers as the most important consideration, and to continue to provide users with the products they really want.
I am very happy to hear the news that “Simple Thinking (opens in a new tab)” has been published in Taiwan. I am also happy to recommend this good book to all my friends.
