Tips and Culture Tips will be regular features on Functioning in Business.
Hello, Gary! Welcome to our show!
Gary: Hello, Elizabeth! It's great to be here.
Eliz: On each Functioning in Business program, you'll talk about how to use English in business situations.
Gary: That's right. I'll give tips about American culture and about using the English language in business. I'm
glad we're able to do this radio show together.
Eliz: I am, too. I'm excited about doing a radio documentary on using English for business.
Gary: Me too. I think it will be interesting and useful for our listeners.
Eliz: Gary, let's tell our listeners a little about your background.
Gary: Sure. What do you want to know?
Eliz: How did you get into the language consulting business?
Gary: I studied at UCLA.
Eliz: That's the University of California at Los Angeles, right?
Gary: Right. I got my BA there in 1979.
Then I went to Harvard Business Schoool to do an MBA.
While I was doing my MBA, I taught business English to foreign students.

Eliz: That's interesting.
Gary: After I got my MBA, I started my own business.
I began helping foreign companies do business in the United States. Now I also work with international

Eliz: We're back again with our guest, Gary Engleton.
Gary: It seems that you have a lot of experience in international business.
Gary: Yes, I travel abroad a lot, and I'm often on the phone with my overseas clients.
Eliz: How did you get interested in doing international work?

Gary: Well, I grew up in an international family. My father was in the army, and when I was young, we lived
in Germany and Thailand. And my mother is Korean. I've spent quite a bit of time in Korea visiting my
grandparents and other relatives.
Eliz: Oh, do you speak Korean?
Gary: Yes, I do.
Eliz: I didn't know that. I've also lived abroad.
Gary: Oh really? Where?
Eliz: In China. I studied political science at UC Berkeley in the seventies. Then I got a Fulbright scholarship
to study in China.
Gary: Where in China did you live?
Eliz: I lived in Shanghai. After I left China, I did a Master's in Public Policy at Georgetown University.
Gary: And so how did you get into radio?
Eliz: I worked at the local radio station when I was at Georgetown. I discovered I like asking questions!

Gary: Hi, Elizabeth.
Eliz: Hello, Gary. Our listeners have sent in some e-mail questions, Gary. They have some questions about
American business culture.
Gary: I'll try my best!
Eliz: Our first question is,"Do Americans usually use their first name or last name in business?
Gary: Well, this is a difficult question. Not everyone feels the same about names.
Eliz: What do you prefer?
Gary: Personally, I always use my first name, but some Americans prefer to use their last names. To be
safe, use the name the other person gives you. I always say,"Please call me Gary.
Eliz: Our next question is,"When speaking with women in business, when should we use Miss, Mrs. or Ms.?
Gary: Well, Miss is for single women; Mrs. is for married women. They are older words. Ms. is a newer
word. Ms. is easier to use than Mrs. or Miss because you don't have to know whether or not a woman is
married. I always use Ms. because with Ms., I always don't offend people.
Eliz: What do most American women in business prefer?
Gary: I believe most American women prefer Ms.

Eliz: Hello, Gary. Can you tell me more about Gary's Tips?
Gary: Sure.
In Gary's Tips, I'll be giving tips about language functions.
Eliz: What's a language function?
Gary: A language function is something that you do with language. An example is a request. You make a
request when you ask someone to tell you something or do something for you.
For example, in an airport, if you say,"Can you tell me where Gate 21 is? you're requesting directions to
Gate 21.
If you say,"I'd like a glass of water, please, you're requesting a glass of water.
Eliz: I understand. What are some other language functions?
Gary: Oh, there are lots of different language functions, like offering, refusing, confirming, and agreeing.
For example, when you say,"Would you like another cup of coffee? you are making an offer.
Eliz: I'll look forward to hearing more about language functions in the coming weeks.
Gary: Yes, it's going to be fun!
Eliz: I want to thank you for being with us today.
Gary: Thank you! I'll see you again next time!

Eliz: I'm here today with Gary Engleton. Gary is the host of Gary's Tip and also of Culture Tips. Hello,
Gary! Nice to see you again!
Eliz: Gary, it's nice to tell our listeners a little about our show.
Gary: Okay! Why don't you start?

Eliz: All right. As you know, we are following some important business meetings and negotiations. Over the
next several weeks, we will be interviewing three business people: Charles Blake, Mike Epstein, and Shirley
Graham. Our first guest is Charles Blake. Mr. Blake lives in Beijing, China. He works for International
Robotics, a Chinese company.
Gary: What kind of company is it?
Eliz: International Robotics manufactures industrial robots.
Gary: Robots. So it's a high-tech company.
Eliz: Yes, it is. Then in another program, we'll interview Mike Epstein. Mr. Epstein lives in Sunnyvale,
California, in Silicon Valley. He works for Advanved Technologies, an American company.
Gary: That sounds like a high-tech company too.
Eliz: Yes. Advanced Technologies makes computer components. The third person we'll interview is Shirley
Graham. Ms. Graham is Mr. Epstein's boss. She's a Vice President at Advanced Technologies. And you'll
see, she and Mr. Epstein don't always agree.
Gary: It sounds interesting. When do we start?
Eliz: In just a moment. Charles Blake will be our first guest. But first, let's take a short break. I'll see you
later, Gary.

Eliz: Welcome back to Functioning in Business. Our guest today is Mr. Charles Blake. Good morning, Mr.
Blake. Thank you for coming to our program.
Blake: Good morning. It's a pleasure to be here.
Eliz: Please tell our listeners a little about yourself and your company.
Blake: Well, I work for a Chinese company, International Robotics.
Our head office is in Beijing, China.
Eliz: What does your company manufacture?
Blake: We manufacture industrial equipment and robots.
Eliz: What are industrial robots used for?
Blake: They're used in the manufacturing process, for example, in car manufacturing and in production of
computer parts. They make the manufacturing process safer and more efficient. That's because robots don't
get tired, sleepy, or hungry.
Eliz: What are your responsibilities at International Robotics?
Blake: May main responsibility is to export the company's industrial robots to North America. Eliz: I see. Do
you spend most of your time in North America? Blake: Not really. I work at the company's head office in
Beijing, but I spend a lot of time traveling.
I usually travel for six to eight weeks a year.
Eliz: So you live in Beijing?
Blake: That's right. My wife is Chinese and I have one child, a son.
Eliz: What do you do in your free time?
Blake: My free time? Well. I enjoy playing golf and tennis, but unfortunately I don't have as much time as I
would like.

Eliz: I'm the sales manager for Technology Solutions. (Pause for repeat)
Eliz: I'm the local representative for Ace Electronics in Los Angeles. (pause for repeat)
(Gary's tips) Eliz: Welcome back! You just heard a conversation between two business people meeting at a
trade show. Now, it's time for Gary's Tips. Are you ready, Gary?
Gary: Sure thing, Elizabeth.
Eliz: What's your topic for today?
Gary: Today I'll be talking about how to introduce yourself and your company.
Eliz: That's a really important topic. You should know how to introduce yourself to new clients.
Gary: Yes, exactly. So, if you want to introduce yourself to another businessperson, say Hello, and then
give your name. Hello is better than Hi because it is a little more formal. It's best to give your full name,
first and last.
In today's Business Dialog, we heard Dennis Chang introduce himself to George Smith at a trade show.
Notice that Mr. Chang gives his full name, and then mentions his position and the name of his company.
Let's listen to the Business Dialog.
Chang: Hello: My name is Dennis Chang. I'm the sales manager for Technology Solutions.
Gary: Let's listen to how George Smith introduces himself.
Notice that he gives his full name, his position, and his company.
Smith: I'm George Smith. I'm the local sales representative for Ace Electronics in Los Angeles
Gary: If you want to be polite, you should address people by their last name when you first meet them.
In the Business Dialog, Mr. Smith addresses Mr. Chang by his last name.
Let's listen again.
Chang: Hello. My name is Dennis Chang. I'm the sales manager for Technology Solutions.
Gary: It's best to use a person's last name in a business situation until you are very certain that you can be
more informal.
In the Business Dialog, Mr. Chang tells Mr. Smith to call him Dennis. This is a signal to Mr. Smith that Mr.
Chang wants to be informal.
From that point on, the two businessmen call each other by their first names.
Let's listen one more time.
Chang: Oh, please call me Dennis.
Smith: Okay, nice to meet you, Dennis. I'm George Smith.
Chang: Nice, to meet you, George
Gary: Today we heard some examples of people introducing themselves in a business setting. Remember
when you introduce yourself to say your full name, your position or title, and the company you are with. And
if you are unsure about using a person's last name or the first name, use the last name. Nu khng chc

Eliz: Hello again. We're here with Gary Engleton, our business and language expert. We have an e-mail
question for you, Gary. The question is,"How do people find jobs in the U.S.?
Gary: There are many ways to find jobs in the U.S. One way is through employment advertisements in the
newspapers. Newspapers ads are very important in finding a job.
There are also employment agencies which help people find jobs. Agencies can be very effective too, but
they may charge high fees to help you.
Eliz: Really?
Gary: Yes, but sometimes the company will pay your fee when they hire you. And some agencies will help
you write your resume. They can also help you get interviews with important companies. And sometimes the
employment agency will help you practice your interviewing skills.
Eliz: The Internet is also becoming very important in finding jobs, isn't that right?
Gary: That's right. Many companies now use the Internet more than newspapers. But the most important
place for jobs is among friends and acquaintances. At business conferences and at parties, people often try
to meet someone who can help them find a new job. Meeting and staying in touch with business associates
is called networking.
Eliz: Thanks, Gary. That was very helpful.

Gary Tips.
Eliz: Welcome back. It's time for Gary's Tips.
What's your topic for today, Gary?
Gary: Today I'll be talking about describing your educational background. Sometimes you will need to
describe your educational background. You might be at a party, or in a more formal situation, such as a job
interview.
In today's Business Dialog, we heard Mr. Rosenberg at a job interview, talking about his educational
background.
He talked about where he studied, what degrees he received, and when he received them.
Let's listen again to part of the interview.
Interviewer: Mr. Rosenberg, can you tell me something about your educational background?
Rosenberg: Yes, certainly. I did my BS at the University of Wisconsin. My major was computer science. I
graduated in 1983.
Gary: Let's listen to some more of the interview.

Listen to the information Mr. Rosenberg gives about his Master's degree. First he gives the name of the
degree, and then he says what area he specialized in.
Interviewer: I see from your rsum that you did your Master's at MIT.
Rosenberg: Yes, I got a Master's in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in 1986.
My specialization was microprocessing design.
Gary: Usually we use abbreviations to refer to degrees. When people say they have a BA or BS, that means
they have a Bachelor's degree.
A BA is Bachelor of Arts and a BS is a Bachelor of Science.
These are degrees you get after four years of study at a college or university.
Higher level degrees are called graduate degrees.
An MA is Master of Arts, for example. An MBA is a Master of Business Administration. Many business
executives have an MBA. There are many different ways to say that you have a degree.
For example, you can say,"I did my BA at Stanford, I got my BA from Stanford, or I have a BA from
Stanford.
Also, when a person says,"I went to Stanford, this usually means that the person graduated with a BA.
I hope today's tips were helpful!
Eliz: Thanks, Gary!

Eliz: Hello, again. We're here with Gary Engleton, our business language expert. We have an e-mail
question for you, Gary. The question is,"In the United States, is it better to stay with one company or to
change jobs?
Gary: If you want to be an important executive in a large corporation, it is probably better to change
companies at least once or twice. Large corporations hire at least half of their top executives from outside
the company.
You should try to stay at each job for at least a year, however. Otherwise, it will look bad.
Eliz: Here's another e-mail question: What should I do if I want to change jobs?
Gary: Well, the most important thing is to keep your skills up to date. This is especially important if you
aren't young anymore. It is unfortunate, but some employers may think that your knowledge is out of date.
Take college classes in your field at night or on weekends or even on the Internet.
Eliz: Do you have any other advice?
Gary: Yes, stay in close contact with everyone you know in other companies. Send them friendly e-mails
and cards. Ask them for advice and offer yours. Build up your network.
This network will be useful if you need their help to move to their company someday.
Eliz: Thank you, Gary. Let's take a break.

Eliz: Today's Business Dialog is about describing your job responsibilities. Sometimes it's necessary to
describe what you do at your job. Let's listen to a group of business people at a training session. The trainer
asks them to introduce themselves.
Trainer: Okay. Before we get started, let's go around the table and introduce ourselves. My name is Rachel
Jones and I'm a cultural sensitivity trainer. I train executives to understand cultural differences in the
workplace. How about you, Dan?
Alvarez: My name is Dan Alvarez. I'm an accountant at Acme Accounting. I prepare tax documents for large
and small businesses.

CUT 5
Eliz: Welcome back. It's time for Gary's Tips. What's your topics for today, Gary?
Gary: Today I'll be talking about describing your job responsibilities. In many situations, you need to
describe what you do in your job. In a job interview, for example, you need to be able to state two or three of
your main responsibilities.
And when you meet other business people at a meeting, a trade show, or even at a party, they may ask
what you do in your job.
You should be able to describe what you do in one or two sentences. Think of a clear way to describe what
you do.
Let's listen again to part of the Business Dialog. Listen for the expressions I train, and I prepare.
Trainer: My name is Rachel Jones and I'm a cultural sensitivity trainer. I train executives to understand
cultural differences in the workplace. How about you, Dan?
Alvarez: My name is Dan Alvarez. I'm an accountant at Acme Accounting. I prepare tax documents for large
and small businesses.
Gary: Let's listen to some more of the Business Dialog. This time, listen to the phrases, I handle, and I'm
in charge of.
Walters: I'm Janine Walters. I'm a sales representative for Ace Department Stores. I handle sales for the
Northeastern United States.
Protowski: My name is George Potowski. I'm general manager at Astro Electronics. We sell TVs, VCRs,
radios, that sort of thing. I'm in charge of the sales personnel, and I make sure that our inventory is up to
date.
Gary: We just heard people describing what they do in their jobs. Try writing down what you do in your work.
Then think of one or two sentences that clearly describe what you do and practice saying them. Well, that's
all we have time for today. I hope today's tips were helpful!

Gary: All right.
[Computer keyboard sounds - ting nh my trn bn my in t]
Eliz: Our first question is, How much vacation do Americans get?
Gary: Most American workers get at least two weeks after a few years. In addition, most companies give
their workers some holidays, like Christmas and July 4th, and some days of sick time. Some part time
workers, however, are not paid for vacations.
Eliz: Thanks, Gary. Our second question is,"What is the average work day and work week?
Gary: We generally think of an 8-hour day and 40-hour week as normal. High level executives, however,
are usually expected to work as much as 50-60 hours a week because they are paid so much. But at start
up companies, people work even more hours, sometimes for very little pay.

Let's listen to a portion of the Business Dialog where Ms. White tells about her job at a food processing
plant.
Try to answer these two questions: What was Ms. White's job title? Where did she work?
Let's listen.
Interviewer: Tell me about your two jobs you held before your current job.
Jersey.
Gary: What was Ms. White's job title?
-She was assistant manager.
Where did she work?

Listen again to part of the dialog, and answer these two questions: When did Ms. White work as assistant
manager? What were Ms. White's responsibilities?
Let's listen.
White: Well, from 1991 to 1994 I was an assistant manager at a food processing plant in New Jersey.
I was in charge of scheduling workers on the assembly line.
Gary: When was Ms. White assistant manager?
She was assistant manager from 1991 to 1994.
And what were Ms. White's responsibilities?

MUSIC
Larry: Functioning in Business is an international level business English course with a focus on American
business practices and culture. Today's unit is Introductions, Part 6. This program focuses on personal
questions.
Interview: Shirley Graham.
Larry: Interview.
Eliz: Our guest today is Ms. Shirley Graham. Ms. Graham is Senior Vice President at Advanced
Technologies. Good evening, Ms. Graham. Thank you for joining us.
Graham: My pleasure.
Eliz: We have already met Mike Epstein, who is a Senior Systems Engineer at your company. He
explained to us how he met Charles Blake in China at a trade show. Mr. Epstein was interested in
purchasing industrial robots from Mr. Blake's company for one of your factories.
Graham: Yes, that's right. Mr. Epstein felt that the industrial robots would increase productivity at our new
factory.
Eliz: And you were also involved in the negotiations about the robots? Graham: Yes, I was. Both Mr.
Epstein and I met with Mr. Blake when he visited our company.
Eliz: We'll be talking more about those meetings in the coming weeks. Let's tell our listeners a little about
your work at Advanced Technologies. As Vice President, what are your main responsibilities?
Graham: One thing I do is oversee our manufacturing plants and facilities. Last year we built a new
factory, and of course we're always modernizing our existing facilities.
Eliz: I see. And what are your main concerns in the construction of a new factory?
Graham: That's a very complex question. Of course, one concern is keeping costs within limits. We also
have to be concerned with a design that will help improve our productivity and provide flexibility for the
future.
Eliz: How many people work for you?
Graham: Well, I have five senior engineers who report directly to me, including Mike Epstein. I also have
my own support staff.
Eliz: Before coming to Advanced Technologies, what did you do?
Graham: I worked for Boston Electronics for five years.
Eliz: And what did you do there?
Graham: I was in charge of marketing.
Eliz: Why did you leave?
Graham: I felt I could handle more responsibility, and the company wasn't growing at that time. So I
began looking for a new position.
Eliz: Did you work with an executive recruiter?
Graham: Yes, I did. She was very helpful. She told me that there was a position opening up at Advanced
Technologies.
Eliz: What attracted you to Advanced Technologies?
Graham: The opportunities for growth and for greater responsibility.
Eliz: I see. Do you feel that you made a good choice?
Graham: Oh, definitely. My work is challenging and I'm well rewarded.
Eliz: That's all very interesting.

Eliz: Hello again. We're here with Gary Engleton, our business language expert. Let's look at our e-mail
question, Gary.
Gary: All right.
Eliz: Our first question is, Is it common for a woman to be a manager in the U.S.?
Gary: In fields such as law and medicine, the percentage of women is increasing quickly. However, in
corporations there are still not many women in the top jobs.
Eliz: Here's another question. Is women's pay equal to men's?
Gary: In corporations, women still generally make less than men. Pay equality is an important issue in
business.
Eliz: And one more question. Is it difficult for a woman to supervise men?
Gary: Some men don't like to have a female boss, but that's changing.
Eliz: In my experience, most of the men I supervise accept me as their supervisor.
Gary: Yes, I think most men today are quite comfortable with a woman as a supervisor.

Gary's Tips: Personal questions in business settings.
UPBEAT MUSIC
Larry: Gary's Tips.
Eliz: Welcome back. It's time for Gary's Tips. What's your topic for today, Gary?
Gary: Today I'll be talking about personal questions in business settings. Personal questions are
questions about your living situation, family, and interests. Some personal questions are safe to ask, and
others are not so safe. When you're in a business setting, it's best to stick to safe topics. [c eo dnh
ly cc ti an ton.] Some safe topics are where someone lives, how long the person has lived there,
and what interests a person has.
Let's listen to the Business Dialog again.
In the conversation, Fred asks Sue how she likes living in Philadelphia and how long she's lived there.
Let's listen.
Sue: I'm the sales rep for Acme Electronics in Philadelphia.
Fred: How do you like living in Philadelphia?
Sue: Philadelphia is great. The people there are very nice.
Fred: Have you lived there a long time?
Sue: No, I just moved there two years ago.
Gary: Then Sue asks Fred if he likes living in New York. She also asks him a question about his interest
in the theater. Let's listen.
Sue: How about you? Do you like living in New York City?
Fred: Well, the weather is terrible, but I love the theaters and restaurants.
Sue: Do you go to the theater a lot?
Fred: Yes, my wife and I see a lot of plays. New York is great.
Gary: There are some topics which are not to ask someone unless you know the person well. You
shouldn't ask if someone is married, or about the person's age or religion, or about how much money a
person makes or spends.[ng hi kim c hay tiu bao nhiu tin.] It's also a bad idea to talk about
politics in business situations. It is much better to stay with very safe topics. Well, that's all we have for
today. I hope today's tips were helpful!
