Board of directors, implement


T: Has Ms Anderson decided whether to retrain or lay off ?


G: She made it to the board of director yesterday. They are making a decision.


T: Fortunately for her, she is not the decision maker.


G: I’ll say. She’ll be here soon to give me their decision.


T: Then we can help implemented.


G: Yes, if the board decides to retrain the current employees, we can help them organize the training program.


T: And if they decide to hire new employees we can help me recruit skilled workers

Place price tag on, morale


A: Well Mr. Green, the board voted to retrain. The loyalty factor was the important one


G: The workers’ loyalty to you.


A: And our loyalty to them.


G: It was a tough decision. There will be cost and time consideration in either case


A: But we could never replace loss loyalty.


G: I Agree. You’ve spent lots of time and money in your employees.


A: We can’t place a price tag on loyalty.


G: I’m sure company morale will be high now.


A: I hope so. Changes are always the problem though.


G: No one likes change. But ultimately, it’ll work out for the best.

Pros and cons, option, on side, off side


A: So what’s the next step, where do we go from here?


G: let’s start by looking at the training options.


A: Options?


G: It shouldn’t surprise you that we have a couple of options.


A: Both options with pros and cons.


G: Everything has its advantage and disadvantages


A: And nothing is ever simple.


G: Basically, you can either train your workers on side or off side.


A: Well, without knowing the pros and cons, my first action is to train on side.


G: Let me pull some information together for next meeting, then you can make a form decision.
