HR: Yes, it should all be up on the company website by the end of the week.
C:  Good. I just want everyone to be clear about where their division fits into the company structure.
HR: What about that confusion as to whom the Project Managers would be reporting to? Has that been sorted out yet?
C:  Yes, they’ll be reporting to James Hu.
HR: And do you still plan to meet with all the company managers to set out the new management guidelines?
C: Yes, I’m going to write to them all this week to give an outline of our new management practices.
HR: Right, do you want me to help you draft that?
C: No, but I’ll need you help in putting together my presentation.
HR: And you and the board have agreed on the specifics.
C: Yes, we’re going to be focusing on open management, horizontal management structures, and so on.
HR: OK, well let me know when you need some input from me.
C: For now I’d prefer you to concentrate on sorting out all the details for the management training course.
HR; It’s all under control. We’ve selected the training company we want to use now-Future Consulting.
C: Oh good. How long is the course going to last?
HR: It’s going to be every Wednesday afternoon for two months.
C: And what made you choose them?
HR: Well cost apart, they offer the most comprehensive package-they cover leadership, team and morale building, motivation, cost management, everything really.
C: Will you be going along too?
HR: Yes, to see what the course is like really-but I’m sure I’ll learn something!
