1) Teddy K is the CEO of this company and he is announcing that they want to include a section of computers in their magazine, which is about sports.
ReplyDelete2) Dan Foreman, one of his employees, interrupts him and answer his presentation. He interrupts his Teddy Ks presentation because he thinks that there is no sense create a section of computers in a sport magazine. He thinks in the costumer, in the person who usually read this magazine. He asks him which is the purpose of this.
3) At the meeting we can see a group of people who felt uncomfortable about the question of Dan Foreman. There's silence and all simply look to give while talking, without providing any support to his idea. Consequently at the end when Teddy K meeting will those same people applaud as he goes too.
4)In my opinion, I think is very UN polite his answers. Well, really he doesn’t answer Dan’s question. He left the room and only said of his employees that they should think the answer. And after he left the room, without anything to say.
5) After the meeting Teddy K moves away from the living being applauded by all staff, while Dan Foreman quietly away from the crowd, without ever being taken into account in your suggestion
6) "Excuse" - "I'm not sure I understand what you're talking about." - "I'm not sure I understand..." - "Could I just comment on that?"- "Hold on a minute"-"Sorry to interrupt but..."
