Remembering Inamori Kazuo Inheriting Manage Method

 Inamori Kazuo

On August 30,2022, the Japanese media came the bad news that Inamori Kazuo, the only left in the”four saints of business”, died on this day.

Parting always makes people can not help but recall the past, so like us remembered that when DINSEN was founded in first year,we was honored to have a chance to produce the cooperation intention with a world top 500 company, which named Saint-Gobain from France, which was also inspired by Inamori Kazuo. Today I wants to narrate a story about once the fate between DINSEN and the old man. At the same time, taking this opportunity to remember the old man together, thanksgiving the old man for his dedication to management,and passing the business method by his whole life experience.

Foreword· Inamori Kazuo

The biggest difference between him and the other three of the four saints is that his childhood upbringing seems to be experienced by ordinary people: common family background and common grades in his school life. He also often laughs himself that he was just a stupid man.Inamori Kazuo ’s experience resonates more than his extraordinary origins and experiences. Most of the world are ordinary people with ordinary origins and dull growth experience, who have similar growth experience with the contemporary industry leaders, which increases the confidence of many operators that they can also achieve success. The establishment of a sense of faith holds true.

As Mr.Inamori said, ” Only those who believe in their possibilities can innovate their careers.”

Therefore, Mr.Inamori combined with the “unity of man and nature”, summed up his lifelong work experience, the way of treating others and oneself and wrote “Inamori trilogy”, teaching his business philosophy to enterprises and professionals. This set of book became the “navigation” for many people in the workplace. DINSEN and Saint-Goban could have an in-depth communication, which was also inspired by the Law of Living.

Text· DINSEN and Law of Living

In 2015, namely the DINSEN in the first year, the company was in talks with Saint-Gobain, which now the world leader in the cast iron pipe industry. After a period of communication and understanding, the group of Saint-Gobain arranged pipeline division President and Asia Pacific President to come to China and visit our factory, inspect the quality of cast iron pipe products , and discuss the next step of cooperation details.

Together with Saint-Gobain in factory

At that time, in order to better let Saint-Goban understand the business philosophy by DINSEN, the founder of the company, Mr.Zhang, needed to make documents for Saint-Goban to intuitively understand the spirit of us. Therefore, in the production process of how to reflect the advantages of DINSEN more intuitively, he certainly inevitably encounter the bottleneck of thinking. Mr.Zhang decided to relax in a book, and picked up Inamori’s Law of Living for a short rest. It happened to see a story that shocked him and sighed:

At that time, in the process of Kyocera production, a problem occurred after a fitting was finished. No matter how to change the temperature or adjusted the grams, one side of the fitting was always warped. All the engineers and designers in the company have spent many days and nights but unable to break through this technical bottleneck.Mr.Inamori was also once at a choke point.

Then he did a potentially exaggerated behavior of holding the product to sleep. Every night with the “soul communication” of the product, the product did not disappoint his sincerity, really “told” him the answer, and successfully solved the problem.

It may seem magical, but actually he studied the product during the whole night, even his brain keep thinking in the dream. The assumption of methods of problem is actually small, as long as you are familiar with all aspects of the product enough, the brain will eventually think of the solution to the problem, and Mr.Inamori proved this point with practice.

The story seems exaggerated. But in addition to full of emotion by Inamori Kazuo’s love of his products, there is much shock. Mr. zhang found that he actually had done the same thing before he know the story:

He really clears how good the quality of the product is, but customers always unable to understand this have been the highest standard in China. To this end, he looked at these cast iron pipes and fittings meditation at countless night , and asked himself: ” My pipe quality advantage is very big, why can’t customers understand? What exactly does the customer want? Did I really explain all the information about the product to the customer?”All the night of thinking and asking, sorting out product data. In order to meet customer needs, what aspects of the product need to improve or change is also frequent communication with the partner factory.

At that time, he actually saw no hope, nor did he know when the next turnaround was coming, but he only knew that he could not stop doing these things that seemed to be my “useless work” at that time.

Finally, in the meeting with Saint-Goban, Mr.Zhang confidently showed them his professional product data which he had accumulated for a long time, expressed the core spirit of DINSEN’s establishment, and also told them the story of Mr.Inamori and his “fate” with Mr.Inamori. Looking at their admiring expressions, Mr.Zhang knows that our cast iron products have been recognized by the world-class company.

At the end of the meeting, DINSEN, who was just established, was also recognized by Saint-Gobain with his professional knowledge of product, love for products and passion for work. They firmly believed that there would be more cooperation in the future.In Factory

Conclusion

High standards and high requirements for product quality are the basis of DINSEN ‘s that customers have given trust for a long-term over the years. 

Mr.Inamori has passed away, but his business philosophy and attitude towards products, others and life are the spirit that DINSEN will inherit for a long time.
