Find the right meaning

Multiple meanings

There are many words that we use in business which have both a general meaning and a business English meaning. Do you know both meanings of these words?

Managing emails Premium-Inhalt

We focus on the different purposes of an email — it's not just about transferring information — in the magazine and in our workbook. For teachers, here's a lesson plan on how to integrate the two elements. 

Get organized on the phone

Discussing plans on the telephone Premium-Inhalt

Imagine that you have to make plans with a colleague in your next phone call. Would you know which expressions to use? Would you also know how to use them in a grammatically correct way?

"Softening" works with colleagues and school kids

Quantifying the work Premium-Inhalt

When it comes to quantifiers, what works at home can work in business situations, too. Just remember which quantifiers suggest there is a lot of something, and which suggest there is only a little.

This is only a ____ for Greece's finanicial problems. I'm more worried about a STUPID scenario! Premium-Inhalt

Stop-out, stopgap or stopover?

Team work Premium-Inhalt

We focus on the pros and cons of working in virtual teams in our magazine, in our workbook, and on Business Spotlight Audio. For teachers, here's a lesson plan on how to integrate all three elements. 

Virtual teams can be challenging

Where in the world is my team? Premium-Inhalt

Robert Gibson, our intercultural expert, looks at the advantages and disadvantage of working in a virtual team in "Together apart", Business Spotlight 2/2010. You can test your understanding of what's important for virtual teams here.

What's the best way to learn a language?

A killer

A killer app is a superior feature of a technology. It is so superior that people feel they have to have it. Can Business Spotlight offer a killer app for learning languages?

app = application
großartig, hervorragend
Funktion, Feature

Price and quality

Taxi drivers cannot reduce their prices. There are also clear restrictions on who can drive a taxi. The same is not the case for business communication trainers. As as result, we see strong price competition and weak quality standards.

On the right path

"Why do we need to know exactly where we are, as long as we know where we are going?" This comment — made by a passenger on a train journey in Ukraine — made me stop and think about the role of goals.
