SWOT Analysis - Company Adjectives - Business English Worksheet
Having to teach business English on the subject of SWOT analysis can be as boring as hell. So, I did a little worksheet on company personalities/cultures to help the students along. I�ve tried it and it works. They seemed to enjoy it and were quite motivated during the exercise. Perhaps not everybody�s cup of tea though.

SWOT Analysis 2 - Business English Vocab and Debate
The first SWOT analysis worksheet went down pretty well, as did the TV SWOT analysis and debate, so I did another. This time with a debate at the end. The debate latter is practically the same as the TV debate, though. I�ll change it one day soon when things aren�t so hectic, but if you have done the other ones before. It should work well enough.

Team Morale Reading Exercise and Role-Play
This starts with a small story adapted from the internet about a company that allows time off for romantice problems and shopping. There is then a human resources role-play with character cards. I have used the story loads of times but I haven�t tried the role-play yet. I think it should be fun especially for business groups.
