| Thanks for coming. |
| I brought you here to talk about the grand opening of our Sydney location in September. |
| We've completed most of the hiring, but we are still looking for a general manager. |
| Wow, that is an important role to fill. |
| The first person that comes to mind is Stef. |
| She has experience opening offices for us all over the world, and always does a great job. |
| She was the first person to come to my mind too. |
| Unfortunately, after setting up the office in Shanghai, |
| she mentioned that she wants to stay stateside, |
| as she recently became a grandmother. |
| Oh, I didn't know. |
| Who else were you thinking about? |
| Well, Donald Trisk's name has been thrown into the ring. |
| Hmm... He is a great worker, |
| but I don't know if he is the right candidate for this position. |
| He doesn't have any international experience. |
| True, but he has really excelled at headquarters, |
| and I think it could be a great opportunity to see him progress. |
| I agree, it is just such a big risk. |
| We have been wanting to open an office in Australia for nearly fifteen years. |
| Why don't we bring his managers in for a discussion? |
| Good idea. |
| Let's keep this conversation confidential, |
| as we don't want to get his hopes up if we decide it isn't the right time. |
