The roles. Moderator (Production Manager) (Russian-speaking)

Moderator (Production Manager) (Russian-speaking). You run the flow of the meeting by setting the problem and giving the floor to the participants and organising a discussion. You may express your personal opinion as well.

The Boss (English-speaking). You are encouraging the management to hide the true information from the customers ensuring them that the product is not going to do any harm to people's health. Think of the arguments proving your point of view.

Marketing Manager (English-speaking). The only risks you worry about are profit risks. You have already made up a plan of promotion campaign. Deliver it to the audience. To assure the audience, you have prepared a presentation of the product. Use the tips given by the BBC while delivering your presentation and report.

Managing Director (Russian-speaking). You are quite loyal to your boss, but at the same time you do not want to tell lies to the consumers. You find it more honest to warn the consumer that the product has not been clinically tested.

Chief Technologist (Russian-speaking). You are scientifically literal, but you have little experimental experience. The new product is one of your first inventions. In theory, you suggest that the product is not going to do any harm. Prove why you think so.

Consultant, Doctor of Medicine (English-speaking). You are totally against letting the new product enter the market without clinical testing. Say what consequences may it cause to people's health (if not immediately, then in the future) and appeal to social responsibility of the company.

Chief Engineer (Russian-speaking). You explain to the audience that the process of manufacturing the new product is less energy consuming, the new package is made of ecologically recyclable materials etc (think of other advantages), so in the end it is going to do more good than harm.

Expert in Chemistry (English-speaking). You say that while interacting with sun light, air and water the new product quickly and easily turns into absolutely safe chemical components, but in this connection you doubt in its cosmetic effectiveness.

Secretary (Russian-speaking). You have been using the new cosmetics for a week and you are very satisfied. You are sure it is safe and effective (prove it).

Currier (Russian-speaking). You have washed your dog with the new shampoo, and now it seems to be loosing its hair. Besides, it has changed the colouring. So you are not sure that the product is safe.

Shareholders (English-speaking) (the rest of the audience). Listen to the speakers, put question to them and express your own opinion.
