Business English

Сегодня мы рассмотрим некоторые аббревиатуры, которые используются в деловом английском языке. А так же разберём пример диалога в «офисном стиле».

MBA – Master of Business Administration – это ученая степень, которая свидетельствует о том, что у человека есть навыки, необходимые для управления бизнесом или частью бизнеса.

MBWA – Management by Walking Around – это неформальное выражение, которое подразумевает идею о том, что управляющие могут наилучшим образом выполнять свою работу, посещая цеха и общаясь с сотрудниками организации.

ACCA – Association of Certified and Corporate Accountants – британская профессиональная организация бухгалтеров, работающих в бизнесе.

BOY – beginning of year – используется в документах для обозначения начала финансового года.

СV – curriculum vitae – резюме.

ECU – Европейская денежная единица. Использовалась в европейской денежной системе до введения ЕВРО. Стоимость ECU была основана на стоимости валют разных стран, но не использовалась как валюта какой-то определенной страны.

Dialog with business jargon

John: Hey, can I get a little facetime?

Mark: Sure, let's dialogue.

John: Great. I tried to ping you earlier, but you weren't in.

Mark: Yeah, I had to handle some pushback on my proposal.

John: Really, why was that?

Mark: Well, I've come up with a number of synergies in the value chain. My value proposition was to seamlessly integrate our customer service reps.

John: Sounds like a win-win. How long is the ramp-up?

Mark: That's the problem. I projected a roll-out in two months. C-level people want to dial-in the project in two weeks.

John: ...but you're proposing an end-to-end solution!

Mark: Yeah, I know. I had the time-frame mapped out for all the deliverables, too.

John: Sometimes you have to wonder about high-level management's capabilities to leverage people like you!

Mark: You're much too kind! Anyway, what was it you wanted to talk to me about?

John: Nothing much, I just wanted to give you a heads-up on some performance management issues I've been having with Pete.

Mark: No room to breathe?

John: You've got it ....

Translation into easy English:

John: Hey, do you have some time for me?

Mark: Sure, let's talk.

John: Great. I tried to contact you earlier, but you weren't in.

Mark: Yeah, I had to manage some complaints about my idea for the company.

John: Really, why was that?

Mark: Well, I thought of a number of tasks that can complement each other in how we provide our service. My improvement idea was to include our customer service representatives our processes.

John: That sounds like a good idea for everybody. How long will it take to put your plan into action?

Mark: That's the problem. I think it will take two months to put into place. The directors want to put the project into action in two weeks.

John: ...but you've suggested a complete solution to the problem!

Mark: Yes, I know. I had developed a schedule for all of the improvements, too.

Tim: Sometimes it's difficult to understand why upper management can't take advantage of people like you!

Mark: You're much too kind! Anyway, what was it you wanted to talk to me about?

John: Nothing much. I just wanted to tell you ahead of time about some problems I'm having with Pete trying to control everything I do.

Mark: No room for your own efforts?

John: That's right.
