The New
Boss
This is a role-play scenario to work on with your teacher.
You will play someone who works in a medium-sized company. Your teacher will play your new manager, who has come to meet you for the first time.
This is a great exercise for building confidence in conversational business English!
The Scenario
You are working as a senior engineer with Banana Computers. You may or may not have a small team of people working for you.
Your previous manager left the company three months ago, and your new boss only started last week. He is working his way through the important people at the company, arranging meetings to get to know them.
Today he's asked you to come to his office to meet. He wants to know what you're like as a person, what your responsibilities are, and understand any problems you may have.
Your job is to give him as much information as possible. You may also want to use the opportunity to ask some questions of your own!
