Student A: "Hey there! Fancy meeting in the lift."

Student B: "Oh, hello! Yeah, what are the odds?"

Student A: "Right? So, how's your day been so far?"

Student B: "Not bad, not bad. Just the usual chaos. And yours?"

Student A: "Pretty hectic too, but hey, at least we're in it together, right?"

Student B: "Absolutely! By the way, I don't think we've properly introduced ourselves.
I'm Linh."

Student A: "Nice to meet you, Linh! I'm Thạo."

Student B: "Great to meet you, Thạo! So, what department do you work in?"

Student A: "I'm in Makerting and Sales Department. How about you?"

Student B: "Ah, I'm in Finance. Well, it's nice to put a name to a face finally."

Student B: And I just heard our company are brainstorming ways to boost sales revenue.
Any initial thoughts on what could work?
Student A: Yeah, I've been thinking about a few ideas. Maybe online marketing
campaign, sales training, customer loyalty programs, product diversification, market
research, and improved customer service. Which ones do you think could work?

Student B: I think online marketing is a must nowadays. Everyone's online, so reaching

them there could really boost sales. What do you think?

Student A: Absolutely, online marketing sounds promising. I also think customer loyalty
programs could work well. If we can retain customers, that could lead to consistent sales.

Student B: True, but what about product diversification? If the company offers a wider
range of products, they could attract more customers.

Student A: That's a good point. So, online marketing, customer loyalty programs, and
product diversification seem like strong options. What do you think?

Student B: I agree. Let's go with those three. They cover different aspects of boosting
sales and could complement each other nicely.

Student A: Oh, here’s my stop, see you around!

Student B: Alright, catch you later!

Student A: "Hey there! Fancy meeting in the lift."

Student B: "Oh, hello! Yeah, what are the odds?"

Student A: "Right? So, how's your day been so far?"

Student B: "Not bad, not bad. Just the usual chaos. And yours?"

Student A: "I'm in Makerting and Sales Department. How about you?"

Student B: "Ah, I'm in Finance. Well, it's nice to put a name to a face finally."

Student A: Have you heard about the cost-cutting campaign our company is planning to
launch during this economic crisis?

Student B: Yeah, I've heard a bit about it. It's definitely a smart move considering the
current situation. Do you have any ideas on what activities could be included?

Student A: Well, I've been thinking about a few possibilities. Maybe limiting the use of
company vehicles, improving productivity, investing in high technology, increasing
working hours, cutting down the number of staff, and negotiating with suppliers to reduce
prices.

Student B: Those sound like great starting points. Improving productivity is a good one.
If we can do more with less, that could save a lot of money.

Student A: Agreed. And negotiating with suppliers to reduce prices could also help. If we
can get better deals on the things we need, it could lead to significant savings.

Student B: Definitely. So, those two are important. What about the third one?

Student A: Well, I think limiting the use of company vehicles could be a good option too.
If we can reduce fuel and maintenance costs, that could add up over time.

Student B: That makes sense. So, improving productivity, negotiating with suppliers, and
limiting the use of company vehicles seem like the top three priorities. What do you
think?
Student A: I agree. Let's go with those. They cover different areas and could make a big
impact on cutting costs for the company.

Student B: Oh, here’s my stop, see you around!

Student A: Alright, catch you later!

3. Students have 30 seconds to look at the scenario and 3 minutes to discuss it with the
partner
Scenario:  Traffic
I’m going to describe a situation  Facilities
“A fashion company wants to choose a  Parking
place to locate its new store in Hanoi. Talk  Competition
together about some of the points the  Renting cost
company could consider to decide on the  Near city center
location and then decide together which
three things would be the best.”
Here are some ideas to help you

Student A: "Hey there! Fancy meeting in the lift."

Student B: "Oh, hello! Yeah, what are the odds?"

Student A: "Right? So, how's your day been so far?"

Student B: "Not bad, not bad. Just the usual chaos. And yours?"

Student A: "I'm in Makerting and Sales Department. How about you?"

Student B: "Ah, I'm in Finance. Well, it's nice to put a name to a face finally."
Student A: Are you aware that our company is currently in the process of selecting a
location for its new store in Hanoi?

Student B: I hear you, So, I think that having some factors like traffic, facilities, parking,
competition, renting cost, and proximity to the city center can impact to decision.

Student A: Traffic could be a big one. If the location has heavy traffic, it could attract
more potential customers, but it could also make it difficult for people to access the store.
Student B: Yeah, and facilities are important too. The store needs to be in an area with
good infrastructure and amenities.
Student A: Definitely. And parking could be a dealbreaker for some customers. If there's
no parking available, they might choose to shop elsewhere.
Student B: True. So, those three are important considerations: traffic, facilities, and
parking. What do you think?
Student A: I agree. Those factors will play a big role in the store's success. Let's go with
traffic, facilities, and parking as the top priorities for choosing the location.

Student B: Oh, here’s my floor, see you around!

Student A: Alright, catch you later!

4. Students have 30 seconds to look at the scenario and 3 minutes to discuss with the
partner

Scenario: Rewards for staff

I’m going to describe a situation  bonus payment
“A large retail company is choosing some  a party
rewards for staff’s productivity. Talk  a-day trip
together about the possible rewards and  gifts
decide which three would be most  shares in the company
suitable”  extra day’s holiday
Here are some ideas to help you

Student A: "Hey there! Fancy meeting in the lift."

Student B: "Oh, hello! Yeah, what are the odds?"

Student A: "Right? So, how's your day been so far?"

Student B: "Not bad, not bad. Just the usual chaos. And yours?"

Student A: "Pretty hectic too, but hey, at least we're in it together, right?"

Student B: "Absolutely! By the way, I don't think we've properly introduced ourselves.

Student A: "Nice to meet you, Linh! I'm Thạo."

Student B: "Great to meet you, Thạo! So, what department do you work in?"

Student A: "I'm in Makerting and Sales Department. How about you?"

Student B: "Ah, I'm in Finance. Well, it's nice to put a name to a face finally."

Student A: Have you heard about the new rewards program for staff productivity?
Student B: "Yeah, I heard something about it. Any idea what they're considering?
Student A: I think bonus payment is a no-brainer. It directly rewards employees for their
hard work and incentivizes productivity.
Student B: Well, I've heard a few options floating around. Things like bonus payment, a
party, a-day trip, gifts, hares in the company and extra day’s holiday.
Student A: Those all sound pretty good! I think an extra day's holiday could be a great
morale booster. It gives employees some extra time off to relax and recharge.
Student B: Definitely. So, those two seem like strong options. What about the third one?
Student A: Well, I'm torn between a party and a day trip. Both could be fun ways to
celebrate success and build team morale.
Student B: Yeah, they both have their merits. Maybe we should consider which one
would be more practical and appealing to the majority of the staff.
Student A: That's a good point. A party might be easier to organize and more inclusive.
Let's go with bonus payment, an extra day's holiday, and a party as the top three rewards.
Student B: Agreed. Those options cover a range of preferences and would likely be well-
received by the staff.

Student A: Oh, here’s my floor, see you around!

Student B: Alright, catch you later!

5. Students have 30 seconds to look at the scenario and 3 minutes to discuss it with the
partner
Scenario:  Inviting famous experts to give
I’m going to describe a situation talks
“Your company wants to launch a  Inviting a senior staff to share his
campaign to train staff to become better experience
with time-management skill. Talk together  Organizing an offline training
about some of the activities from which course
the staff can learn a lesson and decide  Learning from a website online

Student A: "I'm in Makerting and Sales Department. How about you?"

Student B: "Ah, I'm in Finance. Well, it's nice to put a name to a face finally."
Student A: Hey, have you heard about the upcoming time-management training campaign
our company is planning?
Student B: I have heard they are thinking about inviting famous experts to give talks,
inviting a senior staff to share their experience, organizing an offline training course,
learning from a website online, organizing a problem-solving competition, and offering
gifts to staff with good time management skills monthly.
Student A: Those all sound pretty helpful. Inviting famous experts could be really
inspiring. They could share valuable insights and tips that the staff could apply to their
own work.
Student B: Yeah, that sounds like a great idea. And I think learning from a website online
could be convenient for staff to access anytime, anywhere.
Student A: Definitely. So, those two seem like solid options. What about the third one?
Student B: Well, I'm torn between organizing an offline training course and offering gifts
to staff with good time management skills monthly. Both could provide motivation and
practical lessons.
Student A: That's true. Maybe we should consider which one would have a longer-lasting
impact on staff development.
Student B: Good point. An offline training course could offer more in-depth learning,
while the monthly gifts could provide ongoing motivation.
Student A: I agree. Let's go with inviting famous experts to give talks, learning from a
website online, and organizing an offline training course as the top three activities. They
offer a combination of inspiration, accessibility, and depth of learning.
Student B: Oh, here’s my floor. See you around!
Student A: Alright! See you later!
