Final Examination Report
(Air conditioning service department)

This year, the final examination was held online.

September 30, 2020. Normally, the final examination is conducted in front of the judges, but this time it was held remotely online due to the effect of COVID-19 spreading. The 5 contestants who passed the secondary examination gave their thoughts on their work efforts and what they are careful about when dealing with customers.
Including the theme selected by each person, the process of solving a problem, the results, and the content of the presentation will be judged according to the evaluation criteria.
Since it was a presentation from their own office, it proceeded in a relaxed mood, but the facial expression and sincere attitude were there in the contest.

The final examination is conducted by executives based on the evaluation criteria of four categories: (1) theme, (2) process, (3) results, and (4) presentation.

Comments from Judges

YANMAR ENERGY SYSTEM CO., LTD. Headquarter Customer support divisionDirector General - Mr. Masahiro KANAMORI
It was my third time being a judge. As a unique event as YES, we set up a new Rookie Award (third year after joining the company) and Overseas Special Award. The primary and secondary examinations were conducted by document screening, and the final examination was conducted based on the content of one's work, particular focus, and achievements. The plan was to have the nominees for the final examination give a presentation in front of the actual judges, but due to the COVID-19 spreading, we decided not to do any business trips, and this time it was held remotely, but the enthusiasm fully reached us.

I think the Service Awards are a good opportunity to set a goal of daily activities, with the desire to be commended on the spot someday. I would like the award-winning people to be proud in their future work and provide guidance and education for younger generations. In that respect as well, I think it is increasing the value and motivation of the service staff.

Through this Service Awards, it would be great if we could develop people who are willing to improve their skills and who can solve complicated and difficult situations with high technique. In addition, I hope that you will be able to tell this experience to everyone around you, make proposals that will improve the level of the service staff as a whole, and take actions for reforms, and become a human resource who can involve others and work hard to achieve results.
