新しいアイデア(あいであ)(せい)むために

To generate new ideas

仕事をしていると、時々「今のやり方でいいのかな」と悩むことがあります。ずっと同じ方法で仕事をしていると、新しいアイデア(あいであ)出にくくなる(でにくくなる)からです。そんなときは、少し視点(してん)変えて(かえて)みるのが効果的(こうかてき)です。

例えば、他の部署(ぶしょ)の人とランチに行ったり、全く(まったく)違う(ちがう)業界(ぎょうかい)(ほん)読んだり(よんだり)してみましょう。自分とは違う考え方を持つ人に会うことは、新しい発見(はっけん)につながります。ビジネスにおいて、変化(へんか)恐れず(おそれず)常に(つねに)新しいことを学ぶ(まなぶ)姿勢(しせい)が、長く活躍(かつやく)するための秘訣(ひけつ)かもしれません。

Translation

When working, you sometimes worry about whether your current way of doing things is right. If you always work in the same way, it becomes hard to come up with new ideas. In such cases, it is effective to change your perspective a little. For example, try having lunch with someone from a different department or reading books from a completely different industry. Meeting people who have different ways of thinking from you leads to new discoveries. In business, an attitude of not fearing change and constantly learning new things may be the secret to long-term success.
