The best place to start is Action's mainstay - the assembly line. What we'd like each of youto do is to go over your respective operations, make recommendations about improvingproduction, and report back to us.

请大家了解目前的情况时，必须注意营造出团队的气氛，让每个与会者都觉得这是自己的责任，并无职位高低之分。可用"we" 、"our"或公司之名"Action"，作为句子的主词，还可用间接句型使口气婉转。

2. To be honest, we're worried that current productivity can not keep up with demand.
