I followed Mr. Tsutomu Uematsu’s facebook. (https://www.facebook.com/tsutomu.uematsuhc_ref=ARTEMdfB5ZuHcbsPwJTPbf2P4q5jYSvgKzTiFUwpp9Ue9ydWo_nQjPUnfX6K0m50Lhc).
Tsutomu Uematsu is President of a small company called Uematsu Electoric Co., Ltd. located in country side of Northern part of Japan. His outstanding idea is everybody is fair to be born to change the world. He said if we kept dreaming, the dream will come true. He has practiced it by himself. His dream from his childhood is developing rockets for space. However, he was not an elite and it seemed to be impossible to start space development with his small company which has 20 employees manufacturing the special magnet for recycling stuffs. Finally he accomplished to launched his original miniaturized rocket.
His remarkable part as a leader is showing the long-term vision and strong will to fulfill it. He treated everybody fair and ask everybody to take a part of his team. When I worked as a physician, sometimes I just stayed to be a practitioner rather than try to keep moving on, improving to create new treatment. In medical field, we have a lot of restriction of way of treatment, human resources. Those restriction is for health insurance setting by the government. In Japan, a doctor normally become an emergent leader in medical team but my plastic surgery department is small that has only two doctors. His concept remind me to be humble to ask for help from followers and don’t give up to move forward.
According to his activity, he is a servant leader. His company is small and his servant leadership create value for company as a community. I think he is already good at using social media to broad your concept. His facebook page is full of his encourage. He always wear his company’s uniform to appeal his character.
I believe the strong good leadership arise from the attitude that leader shows followers belief of their mission and long-term vision. His passionate attitude always reminds me not to forget passion.
