Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the updraftplus domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

\n<\/b><\/span>
\n<\/b><\/span>Tip 1: To give reasons, use TV (To + Verb) <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a>As a CEO<\/span>(or a future one), you have to give reasons all the time, right?  But how are you going to do it in English?<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Use To + Verb<\/span><\/o:p><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
e.g. Our department is going to New York to promote<\/span> our company.<\/span><\/b><\/o:p><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b>
\n<\/span><\/b>
\n<\/span><\/b>Tip 2: <\/span>To give a view, <\/span><\/span><\/b>use ATV<\/span><\/b><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

Yet, when your clients ask your views on a project, using \u2018TV\u2019 is less than enough.  You have to add an Adjective<\/span><\/i>.  And for easy memory, the whole thing becomes ATV<\/span> (Asian Television).  <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>So when talking about a project, you may give your view as follows:<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
  <\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
It <\/span>is<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n
\n
useful<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n<\/td>\n
\n
to meet<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n<\/td>\n
\n
you (on a regular basis).<\/b><\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/td>\n
\n
A<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n<\/td>\n
\n
TV<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n<\/td>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
<\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
Tip 3: <\/span>To make an announcement<\/span>, <\/span><\/b><\/span>use ATV <\/span><\/b>again<\/span><\/b><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n


\n<\/span>Actually ATV is more useful than you think.  When you make <\/span>an announcement<\/span>, use it again:<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are <\/span>pleased <\/span>to announce<\/span><\/b><\/span> the appointment of a new CEO.<\/b><\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span> Our company is <\/span>proud<\/span> <\/span>to present<\/span> this <\/span><\/b><\/span>(to all the people at this grand meeting). <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n
Tip 4: <\/span><\/b>To make a contrast, <\/span><\/b>use \u2018It + is \/ was\u2019<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
This one is important for you especially when you want to get promoted<\/span>. <\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
It was<\/b><\/span><\/span> me who finished all the tasks <\/b><\/span>(within three days).<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
(What does that mean? It was me, but not Mr. or Ms. Lazy<\/span>who did it.)<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
Tip 5: <\/span><\/b>To give new information, use <\/span><\/b><\/span>\u2018It + is\u2019<\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
At a presentation<\/span>, you speak a lot.  Well, but how do you make sure your clients get the new information (or your point).  Use \u2018It + is<\/span>\u2019.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a>It is <\/span>a new market<\/span><\/span><\/b> that we are looking for.  <\/b><\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
So \u2018It + is\u2019 is like a glass wine<\/span>, holding something that is new and important<\/span> for your clients.  <\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
