Hi, everyone.
The chilly season is here!
In September, Commerce Tech held an online event to share tips for working from home. Many people who are working from home due to the spread of the novel coronavirus are confused by the new way of working but are working with ingenuity. The members of Commerce Tech are continuing to work from home as well!
This time, five members of Commerce Tech gave presentations on how they have tried to maintain and improve productivity in a telecommuting environment, from the perspectives of managers, designers and HR, as well as from the management perspective of regional offices.
Thanks to everyone who participated in this event.

Rakuma-style close collaboration without close-contact, workshop and usability testing edition
Presenter: EC Incubation Development Department Assistant Manager: Icchy & EC Incubation Development Department: Yabecom
Icchy and Yabecom from Rakuma talked about how to do online workshops and usability testing.
There are difficult sides to online usability testing because you cannot see the testers directly, so you need to pay more attention to their movements than when you meet them in person. On the other hand, you do not need to meet in person, so it is easier to adjust schedules, which is an advantage.
