How suppliers and customers might be affected by the relocation?
选项
答案
Suggested discussion: Candidate A: Well, relocation will concern almost all the employees. One of the concerns that they have is the effect of the changes. Their main concern is to remain in the position. Tile issues like salary, working conditions, cultural differences, and so on, do concern them as well. Candidate B: Yes, they might be concerned about their job. If business relocates, they’ll have to move to a different place. In effect, some of them will be earning less, and some others may be earning more than they were before moving premises. Candidate A: That’s true. I think many more may face redundancy or feel nervous about changing job. Candidate B: I see what you mean. The redundancies are under threatened by relocating to new premises. Most of the staff may be not happy with the decision made. However, some of the employees might be happy with relocation. They are looking forward to working overseas. Working overseas can offer them a once in a lifetime opportunity to live, work and build friendship in a very different environment. Candidate A: Right. This experience will also give them a chance to widen their outlook on life, encounter cultural differences and develop new skills. But I think the company needs to recruit fully qualified professionals. The candidates must be resourceful, and be able to show sensitive to cultural differences. Candidate B: In addition, flexibility is also an extremely important quality. They should be able to imagine themselves happily adapting to new standards of behavior and dress, different food and even opening hours. How about the perks of working abroad, do you have any ideas about them? Candidate A: Well, those who work overseas will be provided a comprehensive package, which includes free travel, subsidized accommodation and a general local salary. Candidate B: Sounds a good idea. Anyway, I think the company will have to be cautious about relocation. A big action failure has a knock-on effect throughout the whole company. Candidate A: Well, I still have some doubts about relocation. People may ask: what’s the great attraction? Why our company so keen to relocate to new premises? How do we answer these questions? Candidate B: Well, what I can say now is that relocating to new premises may be a good thing. It depends on the circumstances of the company in question. It could be any thing from better access to overseas markets, lower taxes, less labor costs, quicker delivery or a combination of any of these. Candidate A: Probably, you’re right. But it would be fair to say the financial benefits are the main incentive, wouldn’t it? Candidate B: In most cases it probably would, yes. Without them, I suppose few companies would be that interested. In our position, I think our priority is market research. We need to know our customers and suppliers. How suppliers and customers might be affected by the relocation? Do you have any idea about it? Candidate A: I’m not sure what response we may receive from the existing suppliers and customers. The crucial issue is whether the relocation breaches their confidence. If the company lose the confidence in the customers and suppliers, it will be very difficult to win it back. Candidate B: Anyway, the company may lose some old suppliers and customers in the course of relocation. In this case, the company needs to take positive actions to restore confidence of the suppliers and customers. Candidate A: Yes, we should make recommendations not only for boosting moral of the employees, but also for attracting customers and suppliers. You must have some advertising gimmicks to delight the suppliers and customers. Candidate B: Let’s work together to make a good proposal, shall we? First, I would suggest that we should conduct an employee survey in order to find out opinions about the relocation, and then we can sort out the thorny problems. Candidate A: Sure. And we should also carry out a customer survey so as to get the possible responses from the suppliers and customers, and then we can work out solutions to the problems. Candidate B: Well, let’s start with the findings...
