In this conversation, executives from some large companies are attending a business seminar. During a break, they discuss the advantages and disadvantages of projects in different areas of the country.
Dale: I really envy your milestones over the last few years, Don. In your presentation, I noticed the great results you’ve obtained in region D.We’ve had some trouble there.
Don: How so?
Dale: We’ve had problems on delivery dates for materials. Often, they’re not on time. Looks like we’ll have to change suppliers.
Marshall: In my region, delivery is not a problem, but we’re often behind schedule. If we hadn’t extended the drop-dead date on a couple of projects, the situation would be even worse.
Don: What’s going wrong?
Marshall: We think it’s an employee problem. We can’t seem to get a good completion status from them, so that makes it difficult to track a project. We’re going to start some job training in this area soon, so that should improve matters.
Don: I hope you’re right. Looks like the seminar’s set to continue, and I’m presenting soon, so I’ll catch you gentlemen later.

在下面這段對話當中，來自一些大公司的主管人員正在參加一個商業(yè)研討會。在會間休息時，他們一起討論在不同地區(qū)實施項目的優(yōu)勢和劣勢。
Dale: Don ，我真的很羨慕你在過去幾年中所建立的豐功偉績。在你的發(fā)言中，我注意到你在D區(qū)域中取得的巨大成績。我們在那里遇到了一些麻煩。
Don: 怎么會這樣？
Dale: 我們在原材料的交貨時間上有一些麻煩。他們經(jīng)常不準時交貨?？磥砦覀兊脫Q個供應商了。
Marshall: 在我的經(jīng)營區(qū)域，交貨不是問題，但是我們常常延期工期。如果我們不是延長了一些項目的交付期限，情況會更糟。
Don: 那是什么出了問題？
Marshall: 我想是雇員的問題。無法從他們那里得到項目完工情況，因此想要監(jiān)控整個工程很難。我們將在那個區(qū)域開展一些工作培訓，這樣會使情況有所改善。
Don: 希望如此。好像研討會要繼續(xù)了，我馬上要發(fā)言了，一會再找你們聊
