Morning light streamed through the wide office windows, spilling across the meeting room.
The whiteboard was covered with sticky notes from their previous session \u2014 the ones where everyone had mapped out their daily work in detail.
A faint draft from the air conditioning made a few notes flutter gently.
On the table, laptops, printouts, and half-finished cups of coffee spoke of quiet focus and anticipation.
Everyone had arrived a little early. Today was the day they would take their first real step forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cI\u2019ve refined the list we created last time. Some areas overlapped, so I reorganized them into sections that align better with how we actually work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n A new chart appeared on the wall monitor \u2014 nine areas of work, now grouped into three broader categories. Sakakibara:<\/strong> \u201cI see. So this means each team will identify problems in their own area and start experimenting, right?\u201d The sound of shuffling papers filled the room. Shiraishi:<\/strong> \u201cSo how are we dividing the teams?\u201d Kamiya drew three large rectangles on the whiteboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cFirst, the Customer Connection DX Team.<\/em> You\u2019ll handle communication with clients and partners. Mizuno:<\/strong> \u201cSo we\u2019ll be the team that connects with the outside world. I\u2019ve got a few ideas I want to try!\u201d Grinning, Squera added a note in the corner of the board:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cCustomer Connection = The Power to Connect.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cNext, the Creation & Development DX Team.<\/em> Ayase and Honda \u2014 you\u2019ll lead the charge on design, documentation, and automation. Ayase:<\/strong> \u201cGot it! I\u2019ve been wanting to try AI-assisted tools anyway.\u201d Behind them, Squera gave a little thumbs-up, clearly approving of the energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cAnd finally, the Operations DX Team.<\/em> Hayakawa and I will focus on administrative workflows \u2014 finance, HR, and information management. Hayakawa:<\/strong> \u201cUnderstood. Maybe we can start by streamlining expense approvals.\u201d As discussions began, the atmosphere in the room shifted \u2014 a blend of concentration and excitement. Moriyama:<\/strong> \u201cLooking at all this, it\u2019s clear \u2014 every part of our work connects to one of these teams.\u201d Squera:<\/strong> \u201cThen let\u2019s get started!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Laughter filled the room, lightening the focused energy that had gathered there. By the time the meeting wrapped up, the whiteboard was filled once again \u2014 At the very center, in bold letters, someone had written:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cStart small, grow big.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n And with that, Seaside Cloudworks\u2019 DX story entered its next chapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Morning light streamed through the wide office windows, spilling across the meeting room.The whiteboard was covered with sticky notes from their previous session \u2014 the ones where everyone had mapped out their daily work in detail.A faint draft from the … Continue reading
It was the foundation for how Seaside Cloudworks would begin its DX journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\nThree Teams, One Direction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cExactly. There\u2019s no rigid framework. Each team can start where they are, testing and improving what makes sense in their day-to-day work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Squera stood on the floor beside the whiteboard, cheerfully rearranging sticky notes to match the new categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cI\u2019ve drafted an initial plan. But I\u2019d like each team to choose its own name.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\nTeam Formation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019ll be Shiraishi, Moriyama, Mizuno, and Sakakibara \u2014 with Squera joining as support.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sakakibara:<\/strong> \u201cPerfect. Let\u2019s also think about how to use data more effectively.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
Ayase, please help support Honda as she gets up to speed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Honda:<\/strong> \u201cI\u2019ll do my best!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Squera, we\u2019ll need your help with organizing the data.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cYes, and we can look into redesigning the request forms while we\u2019re at it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\nThe First Steps Forward<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Sticky notes started multiplying on the walls again, this time grouped by project and priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kamiya:<\/strong> \u201cExactly. It doesn\u2019t matter where we start, as long as we start. What\u2019s important is taking that first small step.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the first time, the team wasn\u2019t just talking about change \u2014 they were doing<\/em> it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
