Shifting Perspectives

Shifting Perspectives: How transitioning from a frontend engineer to a project manager transformed the way I approach challenges, from focusing on tasks to seeing the bigger picture.
This journey taught me invaluable lessons about leadership, prioritization, and collaboration.
I'd like to share about how my perspective has changed through this experience.

「視座を変える」というテーマのもと、フロントエンドエンジニアからプロジェクトマネージャーへの転身が、課題への向き合い方をどのように変えたのかをご紹介します。タスクに集中する視点から、プロジェクト全体を見る視点へと変わる中で、リーダーシップ、優先順位の判断、そしてチームワークについて多くの貴重な学びを得ることができました。この経験を通じて、私の視座がどのように変化したのかをお話ししたいと思います。
