Hello reader, this time I will write about motivational lesson given by former Chief Engineer of Honda R&D, Prof. Saburo Kobayashi. At that moment, Kobayashi tell audience about how Honda ways can deliver the company to current position, the best company in Asia.


Prof. Saburo Kobayashi

From Kobayashi presentation, audience can know how Japanese people have good discipline and bold personality. The way he present the material show that Japanese people have high personality, some joke added in presentation such as he never love MBA educational that he think can damage the creativity. He often say “stupid” to many things that not suitable with his principle, funny!!
There are some lessons we can learn from Honda ways to develop its organization, the first thing he said that the big company should not always make the profit for their decision, but Value. Why? Because the company that always do something for profit, just like people walking in earth without soul, there are no sense of concern about the customers. With Value as customer satisfaction, company will always do the best in all the things they do and the success will automatically arrived. Good company also recognizes the issue and has a plan to solve and improve.

Uniqueness also the key success, customers always want something new and they will not looking and appreciate the follower, because only the first will be seen and valued. The harsh word he said “Knowledge from books is looked down as secondhand and you just parroting other person idea”, company who heard this statement will be offended. So why does we can’t act unique?
Kobayashi also said that the younger should dare to try something new, because the sources of innovation come from the courage we’ve done. Expert says that “Innovation with minimizing failure is impossible and failure experience is the best teacher. Engineers from Honda always be encouraged to dare to answer the question from the owner of Honda about what is the goal of the company and the prediction what will company be in next ten years. With little question like that, Honda hope that not only management dare to take the responsibility but also the employee. The other expectation is that the employee has strong possessiveness and pride to their company.

Airbag technology

Honda have great contribution to the world through innovative original research, Honda has created advanced airbags that offer high levels of occupant protection. Honda also introduced the first system to sense when a child or small-statured adult in the front passenger seat is in the path of deployment of the side airbag, and to stop the airbag's deployment until the occupant returns to a desirable position. Those innovations come from the extraordinary idea and the way employee thinks and acts
