I work in our company’s Toledo office and I was meeting with my counterpart in our Raleigh office. I was trying to explain to her our new proposal to make some changes in the corporate 1 structure. But, it wasn’t going very well.



Rory: So, with the new plan, the managers would report directly to the CEO?



Dean: That’s not quite right. The local managers would report to the regional managers, and the regional managers would be supervised by the COO. That would give the COO more oversight 2 than he has now.



Rory: You’re saying, then, that the managers aren’t being well supervised now?



Dean: No, that’s not what I meant. We were actually thinking that the new plan would free up the CEO to work on attracting new business.



Rory: So, you think that the problem is with the CEO. He’s not doing his job.



Dean: No, that’s not it at all. What I’m trying to say is that we need this new plan because our office has expanded so much in the past year.



Rory: Well, I don’t really agree with you. I think that both the CEO and COO are doing a fine job now.



Dean: I think we may have our wires crossed. Let’s set up a meeting for next week to talk more about it.



Rory: Okay. That’s fine with me.
