Each unit is structured on theory and exercises aimed at improving speech elements, offering tips and suggestions to eliminate weaknesses regarding the structure and organization of documents, and analysing & discussing texts and/or proposals that business executives are asked to present and negotiate. A variety of texts with numerous practical applications exposes students to different types of readings, thus supporting the use of English in topics that business executives need to address daily.
