Everything has changed since the head of my department changed. He came from Germany(our company is German) and doesn't speak Japanese.
He picked me up to assist him as I was famous as an "English consultant", which means I can speak English.
How fantastic my life has changed! Stephan, my new boss, takes me to lots of important meetings including the most important one, the one being held at the president's office. The meeting members are all important managers and the funny thing is my job is to manage the managers.
They are supposed to send a updated document to me every Thursday and I'll send them a reminder. Stephan and I work with the documents on Fridays for the meeting on next Monday.
Stephan is probably around 40, cheerful, smart, and very tall man. He smiles at everyone and his joke is wonderful.
Today was the first day I didn't have a meeting with him since he came. I read documents about the transformation plan and learned a lot about the company.
I left the office at 5 and went shopping. Now I'm at a cafe in Akasaka. Nice, comfortable, sleepy...but I want to study more before I get home. Now I'm reading PNBOK, the most famous textbook about project management.
Not only my job, but also my life is clearly changing...something must happen. Something important is about to happen. I'm living for it.
