本期聊了我们对冬奥会的了解。
两个完全没有冰雪背景的人聊冬奥会聊得非常艰辛。😂
涉及到了冬季运动比赛项目的表达，运动员的出身，运动员食物，吉祥物等话题。
希望大家听得愉快！

In this podcast, we talked about Beijing Winter Olympic.
We both don't have a very familiar experience of ice and snow world, so it is a little bit hard for us to talk about winter sports.
In this podcast there are some topics like events, food and mascot etc.
Maybe we are not serious about the content what we talked about, but hope it is helpful for you to practice your listening.

Global professionals often face unique challenges, including increased workload, rapid change, and cultural differences. To thrive in this complex environment, upskilling is paramount.

Understanding Workplace Overwhelm
Overwhelm is often linked to factors like unclear expectations, excessive workload, and lack of support. Global professionals may experience additional stress due to time zone differences, cultural nuances, and virtual collaboration challenges. Recognizing the signs of overwhelm - burnout, decreased productivity, and declining job satisfaction - is crucial.

The Role of Upskilling
Upskilling is essential for managing overwhelm and advancing careers. By acquiring new skills, professionals can increase efficiency, take on more complex tasks, and adapt to changing demands. Focus on skills that align with organizational goals and future industry trends.

Prioritizing Upskilling
Identify skill gaps through self-assessment and feedback. Prioritize learning areas that directly address workload challenges. Consider microlearning for quick skill acquisition.

Creating a Supportive Environment
Effective time management, delegation, and setting boundaries are crucial. Open communication with managers about workload is essential. Seek support from colleagues or mentors.

Balancing Work and Life
Global professionals often face unique work-life challenges. Prioritize well-being through physical activity, mindfulness, and sufficient rest. Set clear boundaries between work and personal life.

Leveraging Technology
Utilize productivity tools to streamline tasks. Explore automation options to reduce manual work. Leverage collaboration platforms for efficient teamwork.

By understanding the root causes of overwhelm and prioritizing upskilling, global professionals can enhance their resilience, career progression, and overall job satisfaction.

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


先日、オンラインレッスンでお話していた時に、日本のマンホールの話をしておもしろかったので、ちょっと調べてみました。

国土交通省のホームページにおもしろいものを見つけましたのでリンクをはっておきます！

https://www.mlit.go.jp/crd/sewerage/kouka/manhole/index.html

調べてみると、世界でもマンホールが特徴的な国などはたくさんあるみたいです。

日本は都道府県、それから市によってデザインが違います。
これは旅行するときにはとてもおもしろいと思いますので、少し紹介しますね。

例えば、
大阪市だったら、大阪城が描かれています。
僕が前住んでいた岡山市は桃太郎のデザインです。

他にもたくさんあるので、もし興味がある方はリンクから見てみてください。少しみにくいですが。


レッスンの時に読んでいたニュースの記事もはっておきます。

https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/easy/k10014049941000/k10014049941000.html

静岡県でマンガのちびまる子ちゃんのデザインのマンホールができた、というニュースですね。おもしろかったです。

みなさんの国のマンホールのふたはどんなデザインですか？
よければ、ぜひオンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
