I had a dinner with my colleague who came here from Japan to handle an event in his charge.
He complained about his boss.
His boss gets a lot of new businesses which his team has not experienced.
It's troublesome for his subordinates to treat them.
I understand my colleage's feeling.
However, the most difficult job is to develop a new business.
His boss is a genius for getting new business.
Unfortunately, his boss doesn't seem to have a talent for team management.

Good. You have some interesting thoughts. The problem is that it is not clear what you mean by "business." Is this STARTING a new company? Or is it getting new clients? :)

Thank you for your correction!
