Q。自分の強み、弱みは？

ここ1年ほどでつくづく思いましたが、強みは何かを立ち上げることですね。何かを始めるのはすごく得意だし、結果をだせるし実績もある。能力でいえば集中力が長けているのでしょうね、追い込んで集中すると何かできる。

その反面、大きくなった組織の中でそれを維持するのは難しい。新しいことを次々やりたい性格なので。そっちの衝動が強くなるから、有限の時間をつくったものをメンテするより次をやりたいって思う。といっても15年やってますけど（笑）。

What are your strengths and weaknesses?

I've thought about this a lot the past year but I'd have to say my strength is in starting up something. I'm really good at beginning something, I can produce results and put it into practice. I wouldn't say it's an ability so much as having good concentration. If I put my mind to it I can do something.

On the other hand, it's hard for me to manage once the organization gets big since my personality is that I want to keep doing something new. This impulse grows strong and rather than maintain what I've made for a limited amount of time I think about what I want to do next. Although I've been doing that for fifteen years (laughs).
