第12回の定例会は、運営メンバーの一人が、年度末の面談で上司から「もやもやする質問を受けた」という発言から、「何となく腑に落ちない」、「これ意味あるのか」などを”ＰＭのもやもや”と題して共有しました。
「全員第二外国語だと、気兼ねなく英語で会話できる」
「仕事における文化の違いを感じる」
「女性登用率向上のため優遇されているけれど、残業が多い働き方の改革や、無意識の排除を認識することが必要だ」
という一般的なものから、
「間接作業が増えて、やりがいが見いだせなくなっている」
「専門性はメンバーに負ける」
など自身が直面しているものまで、色々な【もやもや】について話せました。
コミュニティとしては、
「ＰＭやＤＸに、劇的な効果など過剰な期待がある」
一方で、
「ＰＭが管理者と勘違いされて、メンバーから敬遠される」
「安定運営しているＰＭが評価されない」
などＰＭ職がもっと評価されても良いのではないか、といった話も興味がありました。
1つの【もやもや】に対して、沢山の発言や共感で盛り上がり、全てを紹介する時間がありませんでした。どれも前向きな姿勢から発生する【もやもや】で、私自身が、皆さんの明るく突破しようとする姿勢にパワーをもらいました。
また、初めてのファシリテーションで拙いところもありましたが、皆さんに助けられ最後まで務められました。
参加して頂いた皆さん、ありがとうございました。

PMI Japan Chapter Women's Community 12th Regular Meeting Report
One of the management members said that she received a "moyamoya question" from her supervisor at a fiscal year end interview. This story evolved and led to the 12th regular meeting where we shared our thoughts on the subject of "PM's Moyamoya," such as "Something doesn't make sense" and "Does this make sense?
"When everyone speaks a second language, I can converse in English without hesitation,"
"I feel cultural differences at work."
"Although women are being given preferential treatment in order to increase the percentage of female employees, it is necessary to reform the way of working, which requires a lot of overtime work, and to recognize the unconscious exclusion of women."
We were able to talk about a variety of issues, including those that we ourselves are facing, such as "the increase in indirect work is making it difficult to find fulfillment," and "our expertise is being outweighed by our members."
"There are excessive expectations for PM and DX, such as dramatic effects."
"PMs are mistaken for managers and are shunned by members."
"PMs who are running stable operations are not appreciated."
I was also interested to hear that the PM position should be evaluated more highly.
There were so many comments and sympathies in response to one [moyamoya] that there was not enough time to introduce all of them. All of the "moyamoya" were generated from a positive attitude, and I myself was empowered by everyone's cheerful attitude of trying to break through.
Also, although I was not very good at facilitation for the first time, I was able to serve until the end with everyone's help.
Thank you to everyone who participated.
