Building relationships at work and in business is a key skill to have. We believe building trust is all about being clear and open as well as sharing.

It is important to put yourself in the position of the other and to try to understand the culture and business behaviours of people from cultures different to yourself.

We know building relationships in English can be challenging.

Here are some Quick Business English phrases to help you (listen to the audio):

  • (Starting) Mr.Chen, how are you? How?s it going in Singapore?
  • (Starting) Excuse me, didn?t we meet at last year?s WMO Conference in Copenhagen?
  • (Starting) Excuse me. Are you Mr.Chen? ?I?m Paulo Bendetti from OKA Solutions, I was given your name by Franz Hummel at TBA. He said you?d be a good person to talk to about the Vietnamese Market. ?
  • I found the talk about the ?Future of Voice Recognition? very interesting. And you? ???
  • So you work for SonSon, do you know Vinod Chandnani the Director of Product Marketing?
  • SonSon have some fantastic products. If you don?t mind me asking, what do you do for SonSon?

LISTEN & LEARN: Listen and repeat the examples in the audio. Then practice with your own 6 examples.
