Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

There are many company presidents in the slope construction industry as well.

But the world isn't just made up of CEOs, you know?

There are times when the person everyone calls the president isn't actually the president.

I'm just wondering how people would react if, after reading this article, they found out that the person they'd been calling "president" until yesterday wasn't actually the president...

Does the company you work for have "○○ Co., Ltd." written on it?

If it's specified, the head of your company is the president.

Most likely, they are the President and CEO. (Some people hold this title but do not have representative authority.)

So, what do you think happens in the case of companies that don't include this information?

Actually, I'm not the president (or a member of the board of directors).

Although I am the representative, I am not the president (director).

What this means is that sole proprietors cannot use the title “director.”

"Director" is a title that, by law, may only be used by the top management of a corporation that has a board of directors.

That’s why most sole proprietors are likely to be listed as “representatives.”

This means I cannot use the title of President and CEO.

By the way, since job titles within the company are also governed by internal regulations, they’re flexible in a sense.

Quite a few people are unaware of this.

There are a lot of office workers, especially. (I mean, it really doesn't matter anyway, lol.)

What should I call you starting tomorrow?

Also, I’ve heard that it’s a crime for a sole proprietor to call themselves a “president.”

See you later.
