Introduction The introduction is a very important - perhaps the most important - part of your presentation. welcome your audienceintroduce your subjectoutline the structure of your presentationgive instructions about questions The following table shows examples of language for each of these functions.

Sir Richard Branson allows his staff to take unlimited holiday Sir Richard Branson, the boss of Virgin Group which employs more than 50,000 people around the world and operates in more than 50 countries, is offering his personal staff of 170 unlimited holiday time. Sir Richard Branson explained the move on his website.“There is no need to ask for prior approval and neither the employees themselves nor their managers are asked or expected to keep track of their days away from the office. He explained his daughter had seen an article about Netflix: ‘The Netflix initiative had been driven by a growing groundswell of employees asking about how their new technology-controlled time on the job (working at all kinds of hours at home and/or everywhere they receive a business text or email) could be reconciled with the company’s old-fashioned time-off policy. “The best way to meet any challenges is to build a culture of trust within the organisation. So would you allow your staff unlimited holiday time?

Starbucks needs to start over - Stealing Share I just happened to stumble across an article in the February 1, 2010 issue of Time entitled, “Starbucks Can Smell Growth”. It’s an interview with Starbucks founder and CEO, Howard Schultz, who retired in 2000 only to return in 2008 to a Starbucks in trouble. The article goes on to mention how consumer-spending habits have changed in these times of financial difficulty and that Starbucks hopes its entrance into the instant coffee market will once again transform the company into a financial darling. I don’t really feel that Starbucks’ trouble was or is the economy. I think the main reason they got into trouble is they truly lost sight of their brand. If by chance I do run into Starbucks — that’s all I do. Sales may be down because of the financial crisis, but sales were down before then. Starbucks needs to return to the blackboard and rethink things, like their own brand. Starbucks needs to start over was last modified: February 9th, 2010 by Tom Dougherty
