Unit 1i
Unit 1i - Giving a presentation
Oh, good to see you, you're just in time! I have had to organise more staff to work in my i-Downloads offices. They will be doing all sorts of jobs, from packing, telephone support, sales and marketing. I want to give a short talk to welcome them to the business and give them some background information, so that they know a bit more about the business before they start. I really want to motivate them to work hard, but I also want to welcome them and make them feel that i-Downloads is a good place to work. Its a tough challenge, but I wondered if you could help by writing a speech which I could give to all the new recruits.
