Chapter 55: The Set Up

Lola and her companions enter the boardroom of TechSpania as the deal to buy JBlock is being finalised.
In this chapter we have some interesting vocabulary related to DRESS CODE in an office. Is it important to be IMPECCABLY DRESSED? Have you ever bought a TAILOR-MADE SUIT? Do you know how to create a WINDSOR KNOTTED TIE?
We also explain some relevant terms in dealmaking. Do you know how to keep a POKER FACE when negotiating? And who does the final PROOFREADING of the contract?
We do some work on the pronunciation of the “I” VOWEL SOUND in words such as Wi-Fi.
And finally, we talk about the importance of BODY LANGUAGE when communicating, negotiating, and presenting.
We hope you enjoy the diverse and relevant content in this chapter. When you are ready for more, please sign up to live and interactive classes with Marina and me, right here:
