You may have lots of great ideas. But those ideas aren’t worth much if you can’t convince other people that they’re great. And that takes more than just excitement and energy. To convince others, you need to present a cohesive argument.
So what is a cohesive argument? Bien, it’s a series of logical reasons to support an idea. A cohesive argument helps you convince others of your position by providing a set of supporting points presented in a logical manner. If you do not provide a cohesive argument, then you’ll have trouble getting other people to support you.
A good argument might start by showing research and giving some context for the issue. Then you can talk about precedents for your idea, which means other times that it has been done successfully. It’s also good to think about what people might be concerned about, and address that before they even have a chance to bring it up. Y finalmente, you can tell people why your idea is necessary. With a cohesive argument like this, you’re sure to have more support for your idea.
En el diálogo de hoy, we’ll hear Jack, who’s presenting a proposal to move his company’s production to Costa Rica. En nuestra última lección, we heard Jack and several others discussing the idea. Jack’s argument was a bit disorganized and drew criticism from the others. He didn’t manage to convince them that moving production overseas was a good idea. In this meeting, the team has to make a decision on the issue. So Jack really needs to present a good argument.

Welcome back to Business English Pod for today’s lesson on how toargue for a position.
A position could be an opinion, an idea, or a plan. And whether you’re in a meeting, a one-on-one discussion, or a presentation, you’ll often find yourself arguing for your position, or against other people’s positions.
So how can you argue for or against a position effectively? Seguro, you can just state what you think. But there are some more effective techniques you can use to support your position. Por ejemplo, you can use language to make an idea stronger. Instead of just saying “this plan is disorganized,” you can say “this plan is totally disorganized.” That has a greater impact.
You can also work the other way around, y use softening and minimizing idioma. Por ejemplo, instead of saying “we are happy with the new building but there are some problems,” you might say “overall we’re pretty happy with the new building, but there might be a few problems.” And if you want to criticize someone’s ideas, you need to introduce that carefully and balance the criticism with praise. All these techniques will help you present your position.
En el diálogo de hoy, we’ll hear Jack, who’s trying to argue for the idea of moving his company’s production overseas, to Costa Rica. Sin embargo, Angie, Y, and Jim are not convinced that Jack’s plan is a good idea. As they argue for their positions, we’ll cover some useful techniques on both sides of the discussion.
Preguntas de escucha
1. How does Angie introduce her first criticism of Jack’s ideas? 2. What does Jack say about the risks involved in his plan? 3. What positive thing does Angie say about Jack later in the dialog?
Unless you have been living under a rock, you know that the people of the UK woke up on June 24 to learn that they had voted in favour of leaving the European Union, otherwise know as Brexit. After an emotional campaign, 33.5 million votes were cast in the referendum with 17.4 million voting for Leave, y 16.1 million for Remain. Months of warnings from both camps focused on both the political and economic ramifications and rewards.
