Business Spotlight Plus - November-Dezember 2018

Business Spotlight PLUS Inhalt

Time to call!

Many people dis-

like telephoning in

a foreign language.

You can’t see the

other person and

judge their reaction to what you’re saying.

And with mobile phones, there can also

be problems with the reception, making

it hard to hear what someone says. These

problems are magnified in the case of

conference calls, with multiple partici-

pants. In this issue of Business Spotlight

Plus, we provide you with exercises on

how to organize your conference calls

more effectively (pp. 8–11). We also

look at how to present projects at work

(pp. 6–7) and at the language of projects

(pp. 18–19). As always, you will also find

exercises for both listening comprehen-

sion (p. 15) and reading comprehension

(pp. 16–17). And, of course, there’s a

short test on all these topics (pp. 20–21).
